Lyrics
Maybe
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I know how the story ends where everything works out
I got the feeling once again that I can't shake your doubt
Instead of hiding from romance you're gonna have to take a chance
Baby don't say maybe
There'll be no coming back tomorrow baby
I got used to knowing this was more than I deserved
After all this time I find you may have lost your nerve
The voice inside so far away I wanna hide but I hear it say
Baby don't say maybe...
Didn't have to tell me I just know
A bird in hand must fly away so let me go
[ steel - guitar ]
I started late but I'm learning fast
You're the reason this my dream might last
Baby don't say maybe
Don't say no baby just say so my baby
I so certain but your still saying maybe
Yes or no baby just say so not maybe maybe
