Yes It Is

The Beatles

If you wear red tonight

Remember what I said tonight

For red is the colour that my baby wore

And what's more, it's true

Yes it is

Scarlet were the clothes she wore

Everybody knows I'm sure

I would remember all the things we planned

Understand, it's true

Yes it is, it's true

Yes it is

I could be happy with you by my side

If I could forget her, but it's my pride

Yes it is, yes it is

Oh, yes it is, yeah

Please don't wear red tonight

This is what I said tonight

For red is the colour that will make me blue

In spite of you, it's true

Yes it is, it's true

Yes it is

I could be happy with you by my side

If I could forget her, but it's my pride

Yes it is, yes it is

Oh, yes it is, yeah

Please don't wear red tonight

This is what I said tonight

For red is the colour that will make me blue

In spite of you, it's true

Yes it is, it's true

Yes it is, it's true
