Maybe, Maybe

A-Ha · Scoundrel Days [1986]

Maybe you were joking

When you said that you were

Walking out on me

Maybe, maybe



Maybe I was joking

When I said that I was running out on you

Maybe, maybe



I could be wrong, so wrong

I could be wrong, so wrong

I could be wrong



I don't know, but it's been said

Decisions travel far from heart to head

Maybe, maybe



Maybe it was over

When you chucked me out the

Rover at full speed

Maybe, maybe oh baby



I could be wrong, so wrong

I could be wrong, so wrong

I could be wrong, so wrong

Maybe, Maybe
