Lyrics

HOW DO I GET YOU TO YES
�© 2007 Steven P. Richards
I KNOW THAT PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE
WHOEVER SAID THAT WASN'T WAITING ON YOU
A BETTER MAN THAN ME, MIGHT WAIT AN ENTERNITY
BUT I CANT CONTAIN WHAT BURNS INSIDE
FEEL THE FLAME, LET IT CHANGE YOUR MIND

WHISPERED REASONS WHY YOU MUST RESIST
RESIST YOUR REASONS, GIRL, BELIEVE IN THIS
I CAN BE THE MAN YOU KNOW HE'LL NEVER BE
SAY THE WORD AND BREAK THESE CHAINS
FREE ME FROM THIS PURGATORY

CHORUS:
HOW DO I, GET YOU TO YES
IN YOUR HEART YOU FEEL THE ANSWER
THAT YOUR BODY BEGS TO GIVE
ALL MY LIFE HAS COME TO THIS
AS YOU'RE STANDING OF THE EDGE
OF THAT JAGGED CLIFF
YOU CAN JUMP RIGHT NOW, I'LL SAVE YOU
JUST TELL ME GIRL, WHAT I GOTTA DO
WHAT DO I GOTTA DO
TO GET YOU TO YES

HE DON'T DESERVE YOU, SO IT'S TIME TO LET THAT GO
THAT LOVE IS OVER, GIRL, YOU ALREADY KNOW
YOU'VE BEEN NEGLECTED, THE TRUTH IS PLAIN TO ME
YOUR LIPS KEEP SAYING YOU CAN'T COMMITT
BUT YOUR EYES KEEP TELLING ME NOT TO LEAVE

I'VE GOT SOME HISTORY, YEA, YOU KNOW ABOUT THAT
HOLD THAT AGAINST ME, BUT DON'T FORGET
WE'VE ALL GOT SINS IN US THAT NEED TO BE REDEEMED
LET MY LOVE BE YOUR REDEMPTION
CLOSE YOU EYES AND CONFESS TO ME

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE (4X):
HOW DO I (GET)
HOW DO I (YOU)
HOW DO I I I I I (TO YES)

REPEAT CHORUS

OUTRO (REPEAT & FADE):
HOW DO I (GET)
HOW DO I (YOU)
HOW DO I I I I I (TO YES)
