Nilsson, Harry - Maybe Lyrics






Maybe
Maybe you wouldn't believe it if only I'd change
Say I'm acting just like a kid
Well maybe I'm doing what I'm doing
'cause I done what I did when I was a kid
Maybe

Maybe
Maybe I'm foolin' myself more than anyone can
Maybe you've found another man
Well how can you enjoy his touch knowin' that I love you so much?
Baby

Baby
Whoa, baby
I could learn to love your mother
And your mother's sister
And if she visit other relatives, I swear I'd miss her
And every day before I go to work, I'd stop and kiss her
Maybe
Maybe
Oh, maybe
Maybe

Things would be better if only a letter would come
Happiness is easier for some
I promise I will try to please ya
Can't you see how much I need ya?
Baby

Baby if you wanna hurt me
Laugh at me, but don't desert me
Baby
Baby if you don't believe me
Laugh at me, but please don't leave me

Nilsson, Harry Maybe Comments
  1. C.... W....

    Harry say Hi to John for me . Tell him Jean Feeman Wise is up there that's my Mom Harry you will love her .

  2. N.... ....

    Such a special voice

  3. J.... S....

    Strangely regarded as one of the weakest tracks critically, for me this is one of Harry's greatest ever performances. His melody in the bridge is ethereal, and again Harry displays his ability to interpret another writer's vision beyond anything they could possibly have wished for.

    J.... S....

    Every song he sings its as if he wrote all of them...so sweet with so much feeling! Ethereal is right! Harry very missed.....

  4. A.... N....

    Harry a la voix la plus douce qui soit ....J'Adore l'entendre chanter; tout comme s'il était encore vivant.....    Merci Harry Nilsson j'espère que tu m'accueillera aux portes du paradis !  That would be awsome !

  5. t.... R....

    I love this song, Woke up this morning with it being a firmly entrenched earworm. Just had to hear it :-)

  6. c.... m....

    Maybe
    Maybe you wouldn't believe it if only I'd change
    Say I'm acting just like a kid
    Well maybe I'm doing what I'm doing
    'cause I done what I did when I was a kid
    Maybe

    Maybe
    Maybe I'm foolin' myself more than anyone can
    Maybe you've found another man
    Well how can you enjoy his touch knowin' that I love you so much?
    Baby

    Baby
    Whoa, baby
    I could learn to love your mother
    And your mother's sister
    And if she visit other relatives, I swear I'd miss her
    And every day before I go to work, I'd stop and kiss her
    Maybe
    Maybe
    Oh, maybe
    Maybe

    Things would be better if only a letter would come
    Happiness is easier for some
    I promise I will try to please ya
    Can't you see how much I need ya?
    Baby

    Baby if you wanna hurt me
    Laugh at me, but don't desert me
    Baby
    Baby if you don't believe me
    Laugh at me, but please don't leave me

    c.... m....

    ...Maybe you wouldn't be leaving if only I'd change...

    c.... m....

    David Lane .... I think you're right with these lyrics!! I also thought it was the way she typed it. 😀

    c.... m....

    Love all Harry's works.

    c.... m....

    Thank you!

  7. S.... C....

    Maybe, Baby.

  8. j.... d....

    I love you Harry

  9. k.... ....

    tears...

  10. 7.... ....

    Great track! How do I download a profile pic? I don't really understand anything about laptops and PCs.

  11. p.... e....

    So sad , one of the best Nilsson songs !

  12. D.... ....

    Such a great song. Brilliant lyrics and you can't beat Harry's singing. Song was so good even Barbara Streisand recorded a version of this.

  13. D.... P....

    Any one else think Nilsson looks a little bit like Elliott Smith in this picture?

  14. C.... D....

    ...amazing!

  15. b.... k....

    Things would better if only letter would come.Happiness is easier for some.Harry Nilsson Underrated poet and songwriter.

  16. T.... ....

    Hmmmmm, I think I Suck.....not only did I have to post twice because I did something or other the first time which posted my message before I was done, but I also noticed I messed up when I was tryin' to say this is NOT a well known song. So to anyone critical enough, even to the psychotically super critical, I sincerely or semi-sincerely appologise with an S not a Zed, because I'm Canadian and speak English, not American.

  17. T.... ....

    Maybe one of the nicest songs ever sung, in my opinion, which is as good as Gold ; ) Anyways, if you don't hang on the exact words, the tone and feel of this song can apply, in a personal way, to just about any feelings of pathos or remorse. Apparently that well known so I suppose it wouldn't qualify as a classic, but damn it's so good....let's say it's a rare musical gem, or an oldie but a not often heard goodie. In a World that agrees on almost nothing, could we agree on that?

    T.... ....

    I agree.

  18. T.... ....

    Maybe one of the nicest songs ever sung, in my opinion, which is as good as Gold ; ) any

  19. R.... F....

    greatest song ever written

  20. M.... B....

    "Baby if you don't believe me, laugh at me but please don't leave me..."

  21. T.... B....

    One of my very favorite Nilsson songs.....such an artist!

  22. s.... ....

    Yes, you're correct...between 3 and 4 octaves!!! After 74 and the screaming session with Lennon....2 octaves!!

  23. s.... ....

    @LeviBakersfield..I love his self harmonies using over dub techniques on 8/16 track machines. I counted 7 Nilssons just on one track and maybe more! Harry was truly great!!

  24. c.... b....

    Thanks so much for sharing!!

  25. s.... ....

    Great song "baby if you want to hurt me,laugh at me but don't desert me!" Nilsson is so underrated!! But not 8 octaves,between 5 and 6!!

  26. K.... R....

    adore this song, love this musician. beautiful melancholy display of his 8 OCTAVE RANGE!!

    K.... R....

    ehheh. He was awesome, and had a great voice, but 3.5 octaves or so. Nobody has 8 octave range. That's unworldly.
