Here's my latest inspired by a friend of mine who has discovered the power of saying "no" a little later in life. I hope you like it.

Lyrics:

No
is a word
No
is a sentence

It’s complete without explanation
A boundary placed on expectation
It’s been hard for me to say
and for years I’ve had to pay the price

But it doesn’t mean I don’t love you anymore

No empowers me
No empowers you
Not to do the things
We don’t want to do
No frees us from the roles
that we don’t want to play
By simply saying no
We’re both free to walk away

But it doesn’t mean I don’t love you anymore

No
can feel like rejection
No
wonder it’s hard to hear

Though complete without explanation
To avoid all speculation
it’s just a step to keep me whole
a flower placed on the alter of my soul

But it doesn’t mean I don’t love you anymore

Thanks for listening!
