"Say You Will" is a song from Fleetwood Mac's 2003 album Say You Will. The song reached #17 on Billboard's Adult Contemporary chart in 2003 for three weeks, and was performed live on Fleetwood Mac's Say You Will Tour.

Background

Nicks said the following in Performing Songwriter Magazine in 2003:
"...but that song is not just about Lindsey. It’s about a movie I saw about Arturo Sandoval, the trumpet player...that was really my inspiration for that song. The chorus was written first, then I went back to write the verses... you have this great chorus that basically says, "If you dance with me, you won’t be mad at me anymore. We can be in a huge argument, but if we put on some music and start to dance, everything will be great." Then I had to think about what to make the verses about. So I went back over all my relationships with people and think of different ways that I have felt when I wanted basically to burst into song and sing that chorus. Give me one more chance. That’s what came out of it. It’s funny because, we just did an interview the day before yesterday, and I don’t think any of the band knows that that was the reason I wrote the song."
