Maybe There Is a Way Lyrics

The other side always seems more green

But will she change, ever treat me mean

I need a life, don't need no trap

Gotta keep an eye on the map

No one thinks of anything but the ring

Sometimes a snake leaves less of a sting

How can I know which is the way

Hope the strings attached never fray

Everybody shouts philosophy

But what’s that got to do with me

I’m told to do this and to do that

I am to be no wheel chasing rat

Maybe there is a way

Perhaps there is a hope

The single life is okay

I can do as I may

Everything I've fought for

To her I could lose it all

Isn't it better to stay

Than to blow it all away

Maybe there is a road

Perhaps our own abode

Maybe she might see me fine

Rather than a dollar sign

She might toss me away

At the end of my days

But maybe there is a way

Maybe there is a way

She passed me today with a smile

I hadn't felt like that for a while

It makes me wonder if she's the one

Or make me wish to end my life with a gun

I hadn't felt like that for years

Maybe I should take her out for beers

At once I felt all we could be

But can I really trust only that I see

My sister had a baby not long ago

From that she's gotten such a glow

Is it me to be on the same page

Or will I be a budgie trapped in its cage

As the oldest grandchild I've had a taste

Childhood lessons never went to waste

Sure I could do it, will it feel new

Though what could ever be my future view

Maybe there is a way

Perhaps there is a hope

The single life is okay

I can do as I may

Everything I've fought for

To her I could lose it all

Isn't it better to stay

Than to blow it all away

Maybe there is a road

Perhaps our own abode

Maybe she might see me fine

Rather than a dollar sign

She might toss me away

At the end of my days

But maybe there is a way

Maybe there is a way
