"An Ode To Maybe" lyrics

"An Ode To Maybe"

Lead in night at the Laundromat
And I'm staring at you pulling clothes from a dryer
And I'm wondering how I got here
'Cause it seems some how I keep getting stuck in the mire
I needed this more than I knew
And I let you down and I said I'm sorry
But the light, it falls on my castle walls
And my basketballs pelt me with bricks in my dreams

Tonight, well maybe
What you need I hope it finds you
Oh I might, I might be, well maybe
Maybe some day you'll get it right
Oh I might

If I could bottle my hopes in a store-bought scent
They'd be nutmeg peach and they'd pay the rent
And I'd ride a horse, and I'd teach a course
On how I got to be a star-crossed pimp

Oh I might, gonna live forever boy
Tonight, oh you're a clever boy, well maybe
No you never say goodnight, oh I might

Maybe, maybe

I might, well maybe
What you need I hope it finds you
Are you a clever boy? Gonna live forever boy?
Maybe some day you'll get it right
Oh I might
