lyrics

Maybe One Time (B-Day Version)

As my spirit cries out
Hopin' someone might be there
Well I guess I could forget
All the affection I wish to get (give)
Watch me look the other way
As I watch them walk right by me
Holdin' hands being close
My half smile is so forced

Just look at me
You know I'm a sight
After all this time
Love still ain't right
I'm warm and safe yet shaking with fright
Such a lonely night - oh

They are clingin' together
Never alone out every single night
Love could end any time
Hangin' on hangin' on till a good-bye

Just look at me
You know I'm a sight
After all this time
Love still ain't right
I'm warm and safe yet shaking with fright
Such a lonely night

They touch each other
I'm touched by it
If I could run to the store
Buy it it's mine
How much would it cost to be held?
Maybe one time
Maybe one time
Maybe one time
Maybe one time
