Ani DiFranco – Please Say Yes

So beautiful! Who could ever say no to Ani?

I won’t show you when I’m crying
or frightened by my dying
looking for my freedom now
i’ve been looking for awhile

i will sing of sorrow yesterday
sure to lose a few tomorrows
that time i should have loved you
i just watched it slip away

please say yes to me tonight
i will lie down by you easy
we can wipe our tears away
and shake the fear and sorrow
baby we’ll be born again tonight

now i sing in sounds so sweetly
while our fingers do the playing
loving is a ballad
you can rest it for awhile

oh the silver and the gold
can’t sleep in the museums
i watch your jeweled laughter
i will keep you from the robbers

please say yes to me tonight
i will lie down by you easy
we can wipe our tears away
and shake the fear and sorrow
baby we’ll be born again tonight

i won’t show you when i’m crying
or frightened by my dying
looking for my freedom
i’ve been looking for awhile

i will sing of sorrow yesterday
sure to lose a few tomorrows
that time i should have loved you
i just watched it slip away

please say yes to me tonight
i will lie down by you easy
we can wipe our tears away
shake the fears and sorrow
baby we’ll be born again tonight
baby we’ll be born again tonight
baby we’ll be born again tonight
