Maybe

I feel like this way too often...

Holding up your hope like a billboard
Waiting for a passing glance
You gotta believe that with your heart on your sleeve
There will be someone there to give you a chance

You could be oh so right in assuming
but just as bad you could be oh so wrong
Your will could be crushed by the rush of her going
And your hope was coming on too strong

Maybe, maybe, never was a word so lost
To play with the hope of a blind man on the knife
Maybe, maybe, it all comes at the cost
Of dreaming and believing you could live a better life
Maybe there's a better way to find it
But as long as my heart doesn't mind it I'll go on

Maybe she just wants your friendship
Tell me why does that burn so deep?
You could wait it out or talk about everything else
But does she know you want to play for keeps?

Maybe she's this way with everyone
And she's happy being on her own
It could be that she sees you as a personal comfort
Even then you're feeling more alone.


Maybe so, and maybe no
You got to wonder what she thinks about
The way she gazed into your eyes
Had once dispelled the doubt
Your mind flashes up like a TV screen
And you watch it all unfold
Point out things like you know it's wrong
But the truth is still untold.


Maybe, maybe, never was a word so lost
To play with the hope of a blind man on the knife
Maybe, maybe, it all comes at the cost
Of dreaming and believing you could live a better life
Maybe there's a better way to find it
But as long as my heart doesn't mind it I'll go on
