Maybe Baby
MAYE Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Maybe, baby
Mm, mm
Let's get lost in New York
I'll write you a voicemail ballad
Since you missed my call
It's the only way you'll have me
Have we met before?
Were we something more
In another life?
Have you ever loved me? I could feel it
If you ever kissed me, would you mean it?
Maybe call me baby, maybe baby, maybe
Have you ever loved me? I could feel it
If you ever kissed me, would you mean it?
Maybe I'm just crazy for you, maybe, baby
Problem is, you're the boy of my dreams
What if it's just a made-up scene?
I'll deny it 'til death do us part
'Til you tell me you won't break my heart
You can't take my love from me
We can only let this be
Have you ever loved me? I could feel it
If you ever kissed me, would you mean it?
Maybe call me baby, maybe baby, maybe (maybe)
Have you ever loved me? I could feel it
If you ever kissed me, would you mean it?
Maybe I'm just crazy for you, maybe, baby
Maybe baby
Maybe baby you can call me baby, maybe
Maybe baby, maybe
The song Maybe Baby by MAYE is a meditative and impressionistic piece. The lyrics of the song explore the bittersweet pangs of unrequited love, the struggle to let go of deep emotions, and the confusion that ensues when a romantic relationship still feels possible despite not being realized. The song starts with the repeating phrase "Maybe, baby" which is suggestive of the hopes and uncertainties of the singer's feelings towards her love interest. The opening verse introduces the idea of getting lost in New York and writing a voicemail ballad for the love interest as he missed her call. The central question asked by the singer is if she has ever been loved by her love interest, if it was ever possible for him to love her, and if he had ever kissed her, would he have been genuine in his feelings?
The chorus section of the song highlights the confusion and mixed feelings of the singer. The lyrics "Maybe call me baby, maybe baby, maybe" portray the hope that the singer has that her love interest would finally recognize her love for him. The next verse portrays the love interest as the boy of the singer's dreams, and despite knowing that it might just be a made-up scene, she still holds on to the hope that he loves her back. The final line in the verse, "You can't take my love from me, we can only let this be", highlights the singer's struggle to let go of her feelings and move on.
