Yes from Yes by Ashley Maher

Just when someone else would stop …
Just when someone else would say,
“No! No! No!’
Just when someone else would close the door,
You open and go.

Someone told me that Yoko Ono
Had a big exhibit in New York.
I imagine them waiting in line for hours.

They said it was complicated.
You had to climb climb climb climb
Climb climb climb,
But at the top,
After all the effort what was waiting,
But a word:
Yes
Yes

Every time I’m on the threshold
Of a Big Tomorrow, something new,
I imagine I see it in all its glory …

When the world throws a cloud around me,
I have to climb climb climb,
‘Cause at the heart,
At the center is a voice
That’s calling out a word:
Yes
Yes

Sometimes, so hard to keep the faith.
Let me stay open.

Watch how my mind
Can fight my life for hours.
She’s like a kite, cut loose in a hurricane.

Crazy how I give her all the power,
When it’s a game game game.

Open the door and let Life in.
No better moment to begin.

Listen to Yoko
Yoko Ono, Yoko Ono knew best.
Yes
Loolu dëgg la (That’s true)

Listen to Yoko
Yoko Ono, Yoko Ono knew best.
Yes
Bëkëtë bëkëtë

Listen to Yoko
Yoko Ono, Yoko Ono knew best.
Waaw (Yes)
Bëkëtë bëkëtë
Bëkëtë bëkëtë
Aye Waye !!
