lyrics
He asked me at the donut shop At six on a Tuesday night One extra shift, one shaky nod A paper apron, too much light I wiped my hands on a flour sack Looked at that empty pie pan Said I could help for just one week Never guessed where one week ran By Friday, there were cinnamon rolls Stacked by the front door line His mama wrote my name in pen On the edge of chalkboard signs I said yes, I said yes I said yes, I said yes One small yes, one small yes Turned my whole year around June came hot on Highway Ten With a thrift-store bridesmaid dress Tin-can chairs in his backyard And his laugh through the mess We cut the cake with a butter knife At nine-fifteen, all sun-browned gold What started with a borrowed apron Fit like a story told By fall, I knew his old blue truck And the dent in the passenger side I knew the name on every pie And the way his grin could hide I said yes, I said yes I said yes, I said yes One small yes, one small yes Turned my whole year around Now there’s a coffee mug by the sink And his boots on the back porch step A ring in a jelly jar lid And a life I almost skipped I said yes, I said yes I said yes, I said yes One small yes, one small yes Turned my whole year around
