Back Story:

"Originally called Yes, and was recorded during the period where I was writing a lot of stuff for Gravier, a band with my brother. I renamed the song as I wanted the listener to realise what those three letters are, which are obviously those that spell "Yes", the name of the album."
- Joel Dobbins

Lyrics:

Asked if he'd give a promise
Answered he couldn't wait to hear it
Asked if he would remember
Answered he would forever

Yes
Nothing else to say
Three magic letters
Could only be yes

She revealed the coin in her hand
Encouraged him to pick a side
Representing something
Replied he'd decide carefully

Yes
Nothing else to say
Three magic letters
Could only be yes

She asked him do you love me
As the coin showed heads
Leaning forward she asked
“Will you love me till the end?”

Yes
Nothing else to say
Three magic letters
Could only be yes

She asked him for his true word
And whisper the answer in her ear
Though he knew what he wanted to say
He couldn't find a single word

Yes

Nothing else to say

Three magic letters

Could only be yes

Yes

Nothing else to say

Three magic letters

Could only be yes

Yes
