Set Phasers To Stun Lyrics
Say yes, say yes, say yes, say yes
(say yes, say yes, say yes, say...)
I'm sorry it took me so long
I'm sorry it took me so long
(to come around)
I'm sorry it took me so long
(to come around)
Your famous last words started
once your fingers hit the snooze
Just nine more minutes please (and they...)
They all know where to find me
Every word that I said, what a big mistake
And the ones you left out are keeping me away
I will never make another promise (without you)
I will never make another promise (with you in mind)
So pace the stairs to your apartment
like that’s where you want to be (where you want to be)
That’s where you want to be (where you want to be)
I'm sorry it took me so long
I'm sorry it took me so long
(to come around)
I'm sorry it took me so long
(to come around)
Well there's a secret I've been perfecting
I swore I wouldn't but you let me
I'm comfortably confused (and you...)
You've gotten so removed
You know I, I could take the place of those pills,
Ocean blue, paint it white
Now who you gonna call tonight?
I will never make another promise (without you)
I will never make another promise (with you in mind)
So pace the stairs to your apartment
like that’s where you want to be (where you want to be)
That’s where you want to be (where you want to be)
Oh, we paint our sins on the ceiling
I keep them glued to my chest
It keeps me close like a promise kept
(Say yes, say yes, say yes, say yes)
If I talk in my sleep, will you just keep trying? (we paint our sins on the ceiling)
I might give it up if you just keep trying (well I keep them glued to my chest)
If I talk in my sleep, if I talk in my sleep, it’s gone (it keeps me close like a promise kept)
Say yes, say yes, say yes, say yes,
I’m sorry it took me so long
Say yes, say yes, say yes, say yes
I’m sorry it took me so long
So pace the (I don’t want to stop, I just want to know)
stairs to your apartment (I’m sorry it took me so long)
That’s where you want to be… (I don’t want to stop, I just want to know)
Where you want to be
Where you want to be
(where you want to be at)
(where you want to be at)
(where you want to be at)
(say yes, say yes, say yes, say...)
I'm sorry it took me so long
I'm sorry it took me so long
(to come around)
I'm sorry it took me so long
(to come around)
once your fingers hit the snooze
Just nine more minutes please (and they...)
They all know where to find me
And the ones you left out are keeping me away
I will never make another promise (without you)
I will never make another promise (with you in mind)
like that’s where you want to be (where you want to be)
That’s where you want to be (where you want to be)
I'm sorry it took me so long
(to come around)
I'm sorry it took me so long
(to come around)
I swore I wouldn't but you let me
I'm comfortably confused (and you...)
You've gotten so removed
You know I, I could take the place of those pills,
Ocean blue, paint it white
Now who you gonna call tonight?
I will never make another promise (without you)
I will never make another promise (with you in mind)
like that’s where you want to be (where you want to be)
That’s where you want to be (where you want to be)
I keep them glued to my chest
It keeps me close like a promise kept
(Say yes, say yes, say yes, say yes)
I might give it up if you just keep trying (well I keep them glued to my chest)
If I talk in my sleep, if I talk in my sleep, it’s gone (it keeps me close like a promise kept)
Say yes, say yes, say yes, say yes,
I’m sorry it took me so long
Say yes, say yes, say yes, say yes
I’m sorry it took me so long
stairs to your apartment (I’m sorry it took me so long)
That’s where you want to be… (I don’t want to stop, I just want to know)
Where you want to be
Where you want to be
(where you want to be at)
(where you want to be at)
(where you want to be at)

great line.
Ahhh... the new album is a bit of a disappointment compared to TAYF but I guess you just have to move on. Much better live than on CD, I feel.
dont compare it to TAYF then. i know it's hard not to, but if you compare it to TAYF then you will ruin the cd for yourself. i mean you would ruin every cd if you compared it to TAYF. nothing comes close.
this is most certainly one of my favourite songs on the album =)
could someone possibly post a conglomeration opf all these posts as to the most correct complete lyrics for this song.
thanks =)
well said brandnew1208 everyone needs to except the fact that your not gonna get another tayf,and once they except that they will appreciate this cd a hell of alot more.
