Even back in the schoolyard
They kept one on each other
But every time he looked
She'd look away
Growing up together
But still one step apart
Except in his heart
Where she always stayed
Sure enough years later
When they strike up a talk
Turns out he's always been there
In her thoughts
Now all she needs to say is yes
Love and life will help define the rest
So all he's got to do is ask
With a lot of courage, and a little class
They'll be together now at last
Until the end of time
If this all sounds familiar
Well, it should come as no surprise
See, I've been trying to catch your eye
For twenty years
And now it's unexpected
That I'm in your path again
So tell me how've you been, and why those tears?
I'm so glad we finally have
A chance to talk
And I feel all our time apart
Was just time we lost
Now all you need to say is yes
Love and life will help define the rest
So all I'm gonna to do is ask
With all I have, before our time has past
We can be together now at last
Until the end of time
We'll last
I changed my mind about how things happen now
Because for we're once, we're in control
Let's go
All she needs to say is yes . . .
