Maybe So Maybe No
HAWTHORNE Mayer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Could it be that your love was meant for me
Maybe so, maybe no
Maybe so, maybe no
I don't know what lead me to your love,
Was it faith or destiny
Smiling down on you and me
La la laa la la laa la la la la la
Like birds of a feather
Here we are together
Could it be that your love was meant for me
Maybe so, maybe no
Maybe so, maybe no
Why does time go by so fast now
When I'm here with you
Don't know why minutes seem like hours
When I'm away from you
La la laa la la laa la la la la la
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
I'm not sure if it's really real now
Is it a dream or maybe a game
All I know since I lost you girl
My life hasn't been the same
Now everyday we grow closer together
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
The lyrics to HAWTHORNE Mayer's song "Maybe So Maybe No" appear to be about questioning and exploring the potential of a romantic relationship. The repeated phrase "maybe so, maybe no" implies a sense of uncertainty and hesitancy, with the singer unsure if the other person's love truly was meant for them. The opening line, "could it be that your love was meant for me," suggests that the singer is hopeful but also unsure about the connection they share with this person.
The chorus continues to repeat the "maybe so, maybe no" phrase, underscoring the theme of uncertainty. The verses explore the questions that arise when pondering fate and destiny, with the singer pondering whether their meeting was a matter of faith or coincidence. The lines about angels smiling down on them could be interpreted as a reference to divine intervention, or simply a metaphor for the feeling of being lucky and blessed.
The latter part of the song shifts to an exploration of the intensity of their bond, with the singer noticing that time seems to pass quickly when they are together, and conversely moments seem to drag on when they are apart. Despite this, the singer still expresses some doubts about the reality of their connection, wondering if it's a dream or a game.
Overall, the song captures the range of emotions and thoughts that can arise at the early stages of a romantic relationship, from hope and elation to insecurity and doubt.

Me and my team gotta intervene
What's the point of livin' if you ain't livin' a dream?
We live in a era where everybody want everything
Everybody want a better thing
Tryna feel ya like it's picture perfect but it's just the editing
Man, the game been waiting for a better king
I've been posted with my Queen like Coretta King
Screaming "Money ain't a thing", cause it ain't
Man, I never knew livin' out a dream meant livin' out a suitcase
I've been working at a new pace
So much money on the road I ain't even had a minute
Not a single second chilling in my new place
Motherfuckers getting two-faced
Cause a brother finally eating
Not to mention everybody gettin' two plates
You know I only got two traits
Drop hits, get money
Run it

Rarely i like a cover better than the OG. This is definately one of those cases. This was a first listen favourite. Today my love broken heart was healed, with skating under the sun and listening to this! I wasnt skating i was flowing. This whole album is sublime.

He did the same with “I wish it would rain” I prefer his interpolation over the The Temptations original. The fucking Temptations
