Indigo Girls - Yield lyrics

i was downstairs

in the green room

waiting for you

to appear

i said hello

to your family

i said hello

to your friends

i said hello

to the situation

never yields

now it's easy

for me to tell you

that my love for you

is sincere

but i once stumbled

on these feelings

(on these feelings)

and i once stumbled

on these words

(on these words)

something you

don't ever stumble on

dear

yeah you were so

baroque

all those words

just to tell me no

and you were so

soft spoken

with all of the others

who said you weren't broken

oh they just let you go

yeah you were so

baroque

all of those words

just to tell me no

and you were so

soft spoken

with all of the others

who said you weren't broken

oh they just let you go

when you're three days

down the highway

and you're looking

like i feel

and it takes a lot

(takes a lot)

to keep it going

it takes a lot

(takes a lot)

to keep it real

take some time

(take some time)

for yourself

and learn to yield
