Maybe baby, I'll have you
Maybe baby, you'll be true
Maybe baby, I'll have you for me

It's funny honey, you don't care
You never listen, to my prayer
Maybe baby, you will love me some day
Well you are the one that, makes me glad
Any other one that, makes me sad
When some day, you'll want me
Well, I'll be there, wait and see ee ee

Maybe baby, I'll have you

Maybe baby, you'll be true
Maybe baby, I'll have you for me**

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Connie Francis's song "Maybe Baby" are about a person's unrequited love for someone who does not seem to care about their feelings. The singer expresses hope that their love interest will eventually love them back, but acknowledges that currently they do not seem interested. The first verse illustrates this, with the singer saying "maybe baby, I'll have you" and "maybe baby, you'll be true" indicating that there is some uncertainty in the relationship. The second verse talks about the frustration that the singer feels because their love interest does not seem to care about them. Despite this, the chorus continues to express hope that their love interest will eventually come around and love them back.


The bridge of the song highlights the power that the love interest holds over the singer, with lines like "you are the one that makes me glad" and "any other [person] that makes me sad." This indicates that the love interest is incredibly important to the singer and their mood is heavily impacted by the whims of the love interest. However, the repeated use of "maybe" throughout the song indicates that the singer is not entirely certain about the future of their relationship.
