Maybe this time

They always write the most amazing songs. Like they plucked the words out of my head.



"Waiting for a sign, I used to search with every step
And even as a boy, so many things I can't forget
So if I made a list of everyone I've kissed
What would that accomplish?

I've heard it said that I won't take a chance
But everything I've held slipped through my hands
Have I gone blind?

Maybe this time, maybe this time
You'll give it a try
Maybe this time, maybe this time

And now I know myself a little more than I'd confess
And even as a man, all that I fear
Will get the best of me
So if I made a list of every chance I missed
What would that accomplish?
Now I've been making eyes at you all night
Trying to decide what's on your mind
What's on your mind?

Maybe this time, maybe this time
You'll give it a try
Maybe this time, maybe this time

I saw the night turn into day
I saw the sun show his tired face
Shine into me, shine onto mine
Come see the trees' shadows lengthen and cry hello

Maybe this time, maybe this time
You'll give it a try
Maybe this time, maybe this time..."

Sherwood-Maybe this time
