Maybe, Maybe Not

Would you come runnin’ if I fell
If l fell for you?
Do you know why I can tell?
Tell me do you?
Why am I feeling so strange
When I’m by your side?
But you are out of my reach
I wait while you decide

Chorus:
Then you say
“Maybe, maybe not”
And I fade away
Your answer is “what?”
You don’t give me answers
To my questions
So how can you stand back
Denying confessions?
You don’t hear what I say
Maybe, maybe not baby!

Would you start crawling if I run
If I run to you?
You just think ev’rything’s fun
Tell me don’t you
Why am I feeling so sad
When I’m close to you?
Do you think that this will last?
Is it that hard to be true?

Chorus.

Is it time for us to decide?
Am I wrong and you’re right?!
I don’t think we’ve moved closer to the truth
I think we’ve moved further away
What do you think about me and you?
Is it asking more than you can say?
I guess I’ll just go packing my stuff
Grab my books and my guitar
I’ve never had such a tough love
Your ‘maybe, maybe nots’ won’t get me far

Chorus 2:
Still you say
“Maybe, maybe not”
And I fade… (etc.)
