I woke up to the sound Of a slow guitar I woke up to a hint in the air Even now you haunt my dreams I wish you would just Leave me alone I've known souls to travel before And I've known souls to subdivide But then why would yours Hang around me? Maybe it's a lie Maybe it's true Maybe there's too much Resistance Where there should only be Desire Maybe I've missed something Maybe I've made mistakes Anything I can think of I can back up But does it matter If you sleep by my side Every night Without being here at all? Maybe you made a mistake I know that to be true But then does it matter If my heart takes a leap At the thought of you

Maybe
I woke up to the sound Of a slow guitar I woke up to a hint in the air Even now you haunt my dreams I wish you would just Leave me alone I've known souls to travel before And I've known souls to subdivide But then why would yours Hang around me? Maybe it's a lie Maybe it's true Maybe there's too much Resistance Where there should only be Desire Maybe I've missed something Maybe I've made mistakes Anything I can think of I can back up But does it matter If you sleep by my side Every night Without being here at all? Maybe you made a mistake I know that to be true But then does it matter If my heart takes a leap At the thought of you
"Maybe" is the thing you would've said when you know you did something wrong but don't want to own up to it.
