Maybe, maybe you wouldn't be leavin' if only I'd change

Say I'm actin' just like a kid

Well maybe I'm doin' what I'm doin'

Cause I done what I did when I was a kid, maybe.

Maybe, maybe I'm foolin' myself more than anyone can

Maybe you have found another man

Well how can you enjoy his touch

Knowin' that I love you so much, baby

Baby, oh ba-a-by

I could learn to love your mother and your mother's sister

And if she'd visit other relatives I swear I'd miss her

And every day before I'd go to work I'd stop and kiss her

Maybe, maybe.

Oh maybe, things would be better if only a letter would come

Happiness is easier for some

I promise I will try please you

Can't you see how much I need you, baby

Baby if you wanna hurt me

Laugh at me but don’t desert me, baby

Baby if you don't believe

Laugh at me but please don't leave me
