Maybe Baby

maybe baby you think love's a game that's made for playing
maybe baby you should heed each word that I am saying
maybe baby you think real love is a thing nobody can do but
maybe baby you will find some night that you will come to me
and I will make all your dreams come true

maybe baby you have memories you find unpleasant
maybe baby you have let that past colour the present
maybe baby if you tell yourself that all those bad times are through then
maybe baby you will find some night that you will come to me
and I will make all your dreams come true

the hurtful recent past has made you
dwell on the pain and how love betrayed you
you lost yourself to disillusion and then
you railed against those gods above you
for spiting you and denying love true
and convinced yourself you'd never find it again

because you've suffered past rejection
you've wrapped yourself in cocooned protection
against a world your heart now fights and resists
it's clear to me you need a new love
the kind that shows that there can be true love
you need someone to let you know it exists

maybe baby it will take a lifetime to convince you
maybe baby that my search for love has ended since you
maybe baby you'll believe in me enough to gamble anew - then
maybe baby you will find some night that you will come to me
and I will make all your dreams come true
