She Said Yes

Rhett Akins

(Joe Doyle/Rhett Akins)

(Track 4 - Time 3:31)



He never had given much thought to dancing

But she gave a lot of thought to being asked

Well he'd never been good at coming right on out and asking

And she'd never been given the chance

But something moved him 'cross that old gym floor

When fear was holding fast

And to his surprise the words came at last



And she said yes

To his half hearted request

And they held on for dear life

'Til the last song played

They won't let go

It's beyond their control

They lit a flame with the match God had made

When she said yes



From that night on the fire was burning

And they sure did shine in its light

And he knew as long as the old world kept turning

He wanted her by his side

So with a ring and a nervous smile

And some lines that he'd rehearsed

He said the sweetest words that she'd ever heard



And she said yes

To his whole hearted request

And they held on for dear life

'Til the last stars fade

They won't let go

It's beyond their control

They lit a flame with the match God had made

When she said yes



They lit a flame with the match God had made

When she said yes
