There's a yellow ribbon tied to your door kno
I knock three times, I bow my head
Your silence gives a grim reply,
Your heart is heavy, your eyes are red
Here we are, standing there,
A yellow ribbon tied into your hair
I hold you close, expressionless
As you chant that nothing is fair
"She doesn't care, she doesn't care"
You whisper into the air
"Nothing's fair, oh nothing's fair
I still sit alone, up there
And one day you will be by yourself
free to do whatever you please
You won't have to answer to anyone else
And one day you will be on your own
You'll walk alone and you'll be free
You won't have to answer to anyone else
I'm just hoping you'll remember me
Liar
