Maybe
Jed Madela Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There I was
Waiting for a chance
Hoping that you′ll understand
The things I wanna say

As my love went stronger than before
I wanna see you more and more
But you closed your door

Why don't you try to open up your heart
I won′t take so much of your time

Maybe, it's wrong to say please love me too
'Cause I know you′ll never do
Somebody else is waiting there inside for you
Maybe it′s wrong to love you more each day
'Cause I know he′s here to stay
But I know to whom you should belong

I believed what you said to me
We should set each other free
That's how you want it to be

But my love went stronger than before
I wanna see you more and more
But you closed your door

Why don′t you try to open up your heart
I won't take so much of your time

Maybe, it′s wrong to say please love me too
'Cause I know you'll never do
Somebody else is waiting there inside for you
Maybe it′s wrong to love you more each day
′Cause I know he's here to stay
But my love is strong
I don′t know if this is wrong
But I know to whom you should belong

Maybe, it's wrong to say please love me too
′Cause I know you'll never do
Somebody else is waiting there inside for you
Maybe it′s wrong to love you more each day
'Cause I know he's here to stay
But my love is strong




I don′t know if this is wrong
But I know to whom you should belong
