Not Quite a Yes - Arab Strap

Why could I not speak?

You’re not so unique

My eyes stayed on the floor

I make a little suggestion

Before I pop the question

But I was far too out my face

I was out my face

«It's the first time in ages I’ve actually had the guts to ask but I’m feeling

particularly confident tonight, if you know what I mean.

But that’s the thing —

you don’t know what I mean.

The reason I fancy you in the first place is the

same reason we’ll not get on cause, you’re just not into it.

I mean,

you’re cute and you’re innocent and you’re nice and that, but you barely even

drink.»

No meeting was I granted

But now the seed’s been planted

And now you’re in the know

Too steaming to impress

Not a no, not quite a yes

You ask if that’s okay

I suppose it’s okay
