Yesare a British progressive rockband that formed in London in 1968. Despite many lineup changes, occasional splits and many changes in popular music, the band has endured for over 39 years and still retains a strong international following. Their music is marked by sharp dynamic contrasts, often extended song lengths, and a general showcasing of its members' instrumentalism. Arguably one of the most ambitious musically of their "genre", Yes manages to use symphonic and other so called "classical" structures with their blend of musical styles - including some innovations - in a happy constructive "marriage" of music. The original line-up consisted of Jon Anderson(vocals), Chris Squire(bass, vocals), Peter Banks(guitar, vocals), Tony Kaye(keyboards), and Bill Bruford(drums).

As you throw away misconceptions.
Going for the one.

Roundabout, sounding out, love you so
Love you so

Now the verses Ive sang
Dont add much weight to the story in my head
So Im thinking I should go and write a punch line.
But theyre so hard to find
In my cosmic mind
So I think Ill take a look out of the window.
When I think about you
I dont feel low.
Nshould I really chase so hard.
The truth of sport plays rings around you.
Going for the one.
Going for the one.

Moments delight.
Moments in flight.
Talk about sending love.
