Bradley Cooper - Maybe It's Time Lyrics

Bradley Cooper Lyrics

"Maybe It's Time"
(from "A Star Is Born" soundtrack)

Maybe it's time to let the old ways die
Maybe it's time to let the old ways die
It takes a lot to change a man
Hell, it takes a lot to try
Maybe it's time to let the old ways die

Nobody knows what waits for the dead
Nobody knows what waits for the dead
Some folks just believe in the things they've heard and the things they read
Nobody knows what awaits for the dead

I'm glad I can't go back to where I came from
I'm glad those days are gone, gone for good
But if I could take spirits from my past and bring 'em here
You know I would
Know I would

Nobody speaks to God these days
Nobody speaks to God these days
I'd like to think he's lookin' down and laughin' at our ways
Nobody speaks to God these days

When I was a child, they tried to fool me
Said the worldly man was lost and that a Hell was real
Well I've seen Hell in Reno
And this world's one big old Catherine wheel
Spinnin' steel

Maybe it's time to let the old ways die
Maybe it's time to let the old ways die
It takes a lot to change your plans
And a train to change your mind
Maybe it's time to let the old ways die
Oh, maybe it's time to let the old ways die

Submit Corrections

Jason Isbell told Buzzfeed about this track, "I think it relates to the character in the way that the song discusses how your salvation really comes from within."

When this song is heard in the film for the first time, it is performed by Jackson Maine just on an acoustic guitar in front of some drag-club performers. Next time though it is performed at an arena to a much bigger audience of eager fans.

The "It takes a lot to change your plans, And a train to change your mind" lines are supposedly refer to Bob Dylan's song's title "It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry".
