I know she said it's alright

But you can make it up next time

I know she knows it's not right

There ain't no use in lying

Maybe she thinks I know something

Maybe, maybe she thinks it's fine

Or maybe she knows something I don't

I'm so, I'm so tired, I'm so tired of trying

It seems to me that 'maybe'

It pretty much always means no

So don't tell me you might just let it go

And often times we're lazy

It seems to stand in my way

Because no one, no, nah, no one likes to be let down

I know she loves the sunrise

No longer sees it with her sleeping eyes

And I know that when she said she's going to try

Well it might not work because of other ties and

I know she usually has some other ties and

I wouldn't want to break 'em, nah, I wouldn't want to break 'em

Maybe she'll help me to untie this, but

Until then, well, I'm going to have to lie too

It seems to me that 'maybe'

It pretty much always means no

So don't tell me you might just let it go

And often times we're lazy

It seems to stand in my way

Because no one, no, nah, no one likes to be let down

It seems to me that maybe

It pretty much always means no

So don't tell me you might just let it go

The harder that you try baby, the further you'll fall

Even with all the money in the whole wide world

Please, please, please don't pass me

Please, please, please don't pass me

Please, please, please don't pass me by

Everything you know about me now baby, you're going to have to change

You're going to have to call it by a brand new name, ooh

Please, please, please don't drag me

Please, please, please don't drag me

Please, please, please don't drag me down

And just like a tree down by the water baby I shall not move

Even after all the silly things you do

Please, please, please don't drag me

Please, please, please don't drag me

Please, please, please don't drag me down
