Yoko Ono - A Thousand Times Yes текст песни

I said yes, I said yes, I said yes,

I prayed a thousand times yes.

And the no that was hanging over the buildings

Faded like the moon at dawn.

When I was young I thought I was facing

A very aware world ahead,

I didnt know it was going to be

"beware of dogs" instead.

I said no, I said no, I said no,

I said no a million times to no.

But the yes that was in its last breath

Still hovered in a room with a permanent flu.

When I was young I didnt know

That one can only read life in braille,

I was still struggling to catch life on its tail.

I said why, I said why, I said why,

I asked why for the billionth time.

And my bone slowly lost its moist

Like a leftover coke bottle on the street.

Yes, this dry whiteness of a thing on the square,

Thats my bone.

It lets the wind pass over like the last tender fraud,

Makes a little noise like old campaign billboard.

I said yes, I said yes, I said yes,

I prayed a thousand times yes.

And the no that was hanging over faded.
