"Maybe" lyrics

You know girls:
It's hard to find a guy that really blows your mind
And you just dig everything he does like
Like when he gives you that great big special hug
And that (Mm!) heavy kiss

Girls, you know the kind
The kind that's in the wrong place at the wrong time?
And it really turns you on?

Well, I had a guy like that
Then that time that happens to all of us, we had an argument
And like all, and I mean ALL us girls, I said some pretty dumb things like
Like "Get lost! I don't wanna see you anymore!"

But he was cool
He just stood there looking so hurt
And he said, "If that's the way you want it"
And he split

And I just stood there looking dumb and let that man walk right out of my life
And I've been evil as a wet hen ever since
I told myself, I wasn't gonna sweat it!
But I did

Ohh he was inside of me
In my thoughts, my dreams... every place I went I saw his face
And my friends... they knew. I know they knew

And then one evening I was standing at the bus stop and I heard a voice behind me say
"Hi Baby"

Oh... I just fell all apart inside because I hadn't heard that voice in such a long time
I turned around and there he was
Looking good!
Oh I just can't tell you how good that man looked to me

And as I stood there trying to maintain... myself
He asked me if I had a few minutes

I really wanted to tell him that I had a lifetime but I couldn't blow my cool

We stopped at a cozy little place
And I guess the shock of seeing him made me order a martini
Because that's something that I've never done before
But I felt I needed something stronger than coffee to lean on

Ohh... the music was soft
And the lights were low
And that drink had started going to my head

He hadn't said anything about us so I knew it was my move
And it had to be now

I could feel my nerves building
I couldn't let him go, not this time! Not this time!

So I took his hand
Looked him straight into the eyes
And I said... I said.... I said

Maybe
If I prayed every night (on my knees)
You'll come home to me (Home, home)

And maybe maybe
If I cried every day
You'd come back, you'd come back to stay

Maybe (Maybe, maybe baby)

Oh! Oh!

Maybe! If I could hold your hand (Maybe)
You'd understand (Maybe, maybe baby)

Maybe! Maybe, maybe, maybe
If I just kiss your sweet lips
Yeah!
You'd be at my command

Maybe (Maybe, maybe, baby)
Oh! Oh!
Maybe (Maybe, maybe, baby)
Yeah! Maybe! (Maybe, maybe)

Maybe
