Maybe Someday (Acoustic Mix)
The Cure · Join The Dots: B-Sides & Rarities 1978-2001 [2003]
I don't want to pretend
If it can't be like before
I've got to let it end
I don't want what I want
I've had a change of head
But maybe someday
Yeah maybe someday
I've got to let it go
And leave it gone
Just walk away
Stop it going on
Get too scared to jump
If I wait too long
But maybe someday
Yeah I'll see you smile
As you call my name
Start to feel
And it feels the same
And I know that maybe someday is come
Maybe someday is come again...
So tell me someday's come
Tell me someday's come again
No I won't do it some more
It doesn't make any sense
If it can't be like it was
I've got to let it rest
I don't want what I did
I had a change of taste
But maybe someday
Yeah I'll see you smile
As you call my name
Start to feel
And it feels the same
And I know that maybe someday is come
Maybe someday is coming
If I could do it again
Maybe just once more
Think I could make it work
Like I did before
If I could try it out
If I could just be sure
Then maybe someday is the last time
Yeah maybe someday is the end
Or maybe someday is when it all stops
Or maybe someday always comes again
Maybe Someday (Acoustic Mix)
The Cure's 'Maybe Someday' is a hauntingly beautiful track that exemplifies the band's signature blend of gothic rock and atmospheric pop. Originally recorded in 1981, the song features Robert Smith's distinctive falsetto and a melancholic melody that has become a staple of their discography. The acoustic mix version, included on the 2003 compilation 'Join The Dots: B-Sides & Rarities 1978-2001', strips away the production layers to reveal the song's raw emotional core. It stands as a testament to the band's ability to craft intimate, introspective soundscapes that resonate across decades. While the original recording was part of their early catalog, its enduring popularity highlights the timeless quality of their songwriting and Smith's vocal artistry.
