Me And Maxine

(Gordon Bradberry - Michael Lunn)



I used to kiss Maxine through the front door screen

Standin' on her mama's steps

And if her daddy hadn't come along and run me off

I know I'd have never left

It's a cryin shame but that's the way it was

Somethin' always there to separate us.



Well, I tried not to let it show

But everyone seemed to know

There's somethin' between

Me and Maxine.



She used to wave at me from across the street

Through her bedroom window every night

She was almost close enough for me to touch

But I still couldn't hold her tight

That's how it's been right from the start

Always somethin' there to keep us apart.



Well, I tried not to let it show

But everyone seemed to know

There's somethin' between

Me and Maxine,



There's somethin' between

Me and Maxine.

All the things that came between us

Couldn't change a thing

Now we're together

And that's how we're gonna stay

'Cause our love just grows

A little more with every day.



No, I'm never gonna let her go

'Cause in my heart I know

There's somethin' between.



Oh, I just want to hold her close

'Cause in my heart I know

There's somethin' between.



There's somethin' between

There's somethin' between

Me and Maxine

Me and Maxine.



I know I know there's somethin'

Somethin' between

I know I know there's somethin'

Somethin' between

Me and Maxine.



Somethin' between

Me and Maxine...
