Maybe
Love And Kisses Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What is happening and how have you been
Gotta go but I'll see you again
And oh, the music is so loud
And then I fade into the

Crowds of people standing everywhere
'Cross the street I'm at this laugh affair
And here they always play my songs
And me, I wonder if it's

Wrong or right they come here just the same
Telling everyone about their games
And if you think it obsolete
Then you go back across the street
Yeah, street, hey hey

When I leave now don't you weep for me
I'll be back, just save a seat for me
But if you just can't make the room
Look up and see me on the

Moon's a common scene around my town
Here where everyone is painted brown
And if we feel that's not the way




Let's go paint everybody gray
Yeah, gray, yeah

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Love And Kisses's song 'Maybe' are quite abstract and open to interpretation, but they seem to be describing the experience of a performer - perhaps a musician or a singer - as they navigate their way through a busy city at night. The singer talks about meeting up with someone, then leaving again to go to a party or gig where 'the music is so loud' and they 'fade into the crowds of people standing everywhere'. They describe a scene where their own songs are being played and people are telling everyone about their games.


The chorus seems to be addressing someone specific, perhaps a lover or a friend, telling them not to worry when the singer leaves, as they will be back and to save a seat for them. They mention the moon, which is a common scene around their town, and describe everyone as being 'painted brown', suggesting a lack of individuality or uniqueness. They suggest that if we don't like the way things are, we should go and 'paint everybody gray'.


Overall, the lyrics seem to be exploring themes of identity, belonging, and creative expression. The singer seems to be struggling between the desire to fit in and be accepted, and the need to express themselves authentically and creatively. The lyrics are somewhat abstract and open to interpretation, but they create a vivid and atmospheric scene that captures the feeling of being lost in a busy city at night.
