maybe

verse 1

I make a home out of a maybe, when things are going right

Too much meaning in the silence, too many ways to read a line

Nothing has to happen for a little thought to take up space

And stay a little longer than it might

pre-chorus

A little rain where there wasn't any

A name written somewhere it shouldn't be

A little too close to the edge of something

A little too much to leave unseen

chorus

Maybe I'm better leaving it alone

Maybe I don't need to know

If every little thing has meaning

Then nothing ever feels like home

And maybe that's the hardest part

Knowing when to let it go

Maybe I could leave it where it started

Before I make it something more

verse 2

There's a part of me I never show

The kind that needs to know, then needs to know

A little doubt can change the view

And make a question out of you

It knows exactly where to go

And somehow finds what I don't know

pre-chorus

A little rain where there wasn't any

A name written somewhere it shouldn't be

A little too close to the edge of something

A little too much to leave unseen

chorus

Maybe I'm better leaving it alone

Maybe I don't need to know

If every little thing has meaning

Then nothing ever feels like home

And maybe that's the hardest part

Knowing when to let it go

Maybe I could leave it where it started

Before I make it something more

bridge

Let it go, let it go

Just before it settles in

One more turn, one more thought

And there it goes again

final chorus

Maybe I'm better leaving it alone

Maybe I don't need to know

If every little thing has meaning

Then nothing ever feels like home

And maybe that's the hardest part

Knowing when to let it go

Maybe I could leave it where it started

Before I make it something more
