It is summer
The smell of beer and hot dogs is sweet in the air like a national anthem
It's baseball season
And you love baseball and going to these games with your boyfriend

And today might be the perfect day
As you watch the little boys with their sticky grins on their fathers' shoulders
As you watch all the happy people on the jumbo-tron
And then you see your own face
And your boyfriend's down on one knee
And you see an engagement ring
So big it blinds the screen

And the way he looks at you
Like he caught the home run ball
And then you look up, and see the thousands of people in the stadium rooting for you
To do it
To say, "yes"

This is for the woman who says no.

They will boo you as you run down the stadium steps because it will never be the wedding aisle
Some will throw popcorn at you because it will never be rice or confetti
And then someone will catch your wrist because it will never be the bouquet
They will call you a villain
A bitch
They will call you worse
They will curse the day you learned any other words besides
(Yes)
And sorry
