Maybe . . . you'll think of me, when you are all alone
Maybe the one who is waiting for you will prove untrue
Then, what will you do?
Maybe . . . you'll sit an' sigh, wishing that I were near
Then, maybe you'll ask me to come back again
And maybe, I'll say maybe!
Maybe . . . ( maybe every now an' then, maybe )
You'll think of me
When you are all alone ( wondering what I'm doin' and if I'm alone )
Maybe the one who is waiting for you ( will prove untrue )
( what'll you say? ) then, what will you do? ( what'll you do? )
Maybe . . . ( maybe as the days go by, maybe )
You'll sit an' sigh
Wishing that I were near ( 'cause you're just a little blue an' lonely )
Maybe you'll ask me to come back again . .
And maybe . . . I'll say . . . maybe!
