Song Description
This is a song that explores the fantasy life one can get into as they dream about being with a certain person. You and me in the coffeeshop, you and me making love, you and me running into our neighbors. How one's mind can make up so many stories as we contemplate how "perfect" life will be if only. . .

Lyrics
Maybe Never
© Marie Swan Black
If I could have just one wish I?d wish for you to be
Here with me now and forever
But I guess I better face my place; it may be never
I love you as my friend; my true beautiful friend
But my love stretches wider than any river
It?s pure and it?s free and it could be
All - just yours.
Maybe never will I see you in the darkness shining on me
Maybe never will you kiss me your eyes bleeding into mine
Maybe next week; maybe next year; maybe early in the next war
Maybe next life in my pocket; maybe someday, maybe not
Refrain:
Maybe never
No-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-Never
Maybe never will I see you in the morning in the cafe
Drinking coffee across the table and the neighbors say hello
Maybe never will I feel you day long after nighttime friction
When I walk on up the stairway and our bodies say hello
Refrain:
Maybe never
No-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-Never
Br: So many times I?ve called out your name only to find I?m alone
And so many times you?ve invaded my soul and I still only find,
I still only find; I still only find I?m alone
I don?t wanna be alone
No-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-Never
(solo)
Maybe never will I see you in the darkness shining on me
Maybe never will you kiss me your eyes bleeding into mine
Maybe next week; maybe next year; maybe early in the next war
Maybe next life in my pocket; maybe someday, maybe not
Refrain:
Maybe never
No-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-Never
(solo)
Maybe never
Maybe never
Maybe Never.
