maybe, maybe — lyrics

Track 1 of my jazz-pop-poetic vibe EP — Vertigo. A poem written during lockdown in Cape Town and a song made in LA!

Taking chances on the road

This chaos is such a heavy load

Keeping me in suspense baby

This tension might kill me soon

I’m getting the sense, maybe

Deep down you’re feeling it too

Maybe, maybe

You don’t want to say, I may be

Crazy, Crazy

Are you the one that I let save me

By the way, I know it’s late

But I don’t know how long I’ll wait

Maybe, maybe

We can be

Or you will break me?

Was it just a bit of fun

Can’t tell why you are on the run

So I’m needing you to tell me

If I’m the one you’ll choose

Cause lately I’ve been wondering

Could you even be mine to lose

Maybe, maybe

You don’t want to say, I may be

Crazy, Crazy

Are you the one that I let save me

By the way, I know it’s late

But I don’t know how long I’ll wait

Maybe, maybe

We can be

Or you will break me?

Lock down, we found

A million miles away

In the same town

Reach out, speak now

Or let the silence scream

To me out loud

Maybe, maybe

You don’t want to say, I may be

Crazy, Crazy

Are you the one that I let save me

By the way, I know it’s late

But I don’t know how long I’ll wait

Maybe, maybe

We can be

Or you will break me?

Are you the one that I let save me

Or have I lost my mind, am I crazy?
