Lyrics Not Quite a Yes - Arab Strap

Not Quite a Yes

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
