Say Maybe Lyrics

Why, make me plead
For what I need
And I need you
Why, why make me weep
Cry in my sleep, 'cause I need you

Say "maybe"
Won't you even say "sometime", baby
Won't you ever say lovin' words again
Say, baby
Don't you know I'm a fool about you
If I tried, I could live without you
For maybe a day I

I've been around, finally found
That I need you
And I, I know what I got
And I got a lot
But, baby, I need you

Say "maybe"
Won't you even say "sometime", baby
Won't you ever say lovin' words again
Say, baby
Don't you know I'm a fool about you
If I tried, I could live without you
For maybe a day

Ooh
What I'd do
Say 'maybe" baby
"Cause I need you
Say
Can I stay
Say "maybe" yeah
'Cause I need you

Say "maybe"
Won't you even say "sometime", baby
Won't you ever say lovin' words again
Say, baby
Don't you know I'm a fool about you
If I tried, I could live without you
For maybe a day

Say, "maybe"
Don't you know I'm a fool about you
If I tried, I could live without you
For maybe a day
Say, baby
Don't you know I'm a fool about you

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
