MAYBE ONE TIME (1976)


As my spirit cries out

Hopin’ someone might be there

Well I guess I could forget

All the affection I wish to get

Watch me look the other way

As I watch them walk right by me

Holding hands being close

My half smile is 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 shakin’ with fright

Such a lonely night


They are clingin’ together

Never alone

Out every single night

Love could end anytime

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 shakin’ 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
