Maybe

lyrics

Maybe while we’re waiting to be transported. Maybe while we’re waiting to be transformed. Maybe while we’re waiting for a better thing convinced that nothing’s happening, but barely breathing in the dim. Maybe I could be your girl? Maybe while we’re waiting for a better thing convinced that nothing’s happening, but barely breathing in the din of that next first kiss deafening. Maybe while we’re waiting for the lights to dim—for courage or something like it finally to kick in or, failing that, some music that we can lose ourselves in. Maybe while we’re waiting here at home alone or high as kites in a thunderstorm on the radio or telephone. Maybe while we lie there not sleeping right, holding our breaths in case it might just change everything tonight. Change everything tonight (maybe I could be your girl). Changes everything and then it turns you back, leaves you with just a swollen heart and an aching back. Maybe.
