Lyrics

Maybe baby, I'll have you

Expressing a hopeful desire to have the person addressed as "baby."

Maybe baby, you'll be true

Contemplating the possibility that the addressed person will be faithful.

Maybe baby, I'll have you for me

Reiterating the desire to have the person as a romantic partner.


It's funny honey, you don't care

Noting a sense of humor about the indifference or lack of concern from the addressed person.

You never listen to my prayer

Observing a lack of attentiveness or responsiveness to the speaker's prayers or concerns.

Maybe baby, you will love me some day

Expressing hope that, in the future, the addressed person will develop feelings of love.


Well you are the one that makes me glad

Acknowledging the addressed person as the source of joy in the speaker's life.

And you are the one that makes me sad

Acknowledging the addressed person as the cause of sorrow or disappointment.

When some day you want me, well

Anticipating that, eventually, the addressed person may desire a romantic connection.

I'll be there, wait and see

Committing to being there for the addressed person when they decide to reciprocate feelings.


Maybe baby, I'll have you

Repeating the desire to have the person addressed as "baby."

Maybe baby, you'll be true

Reiterating the hope that the addressed person will be truthful and genuine.

Maybe baby, I'll have you for me

Expressing the ongoing desire to have the person as a romantic partner.


Well you are the one that makes me glad

Reiterating the emotional impact of the addressed person on the speaker's well-being.

And you are the one that makes me sad

Acknowledging the emotional highs and lows caused by the addressed person.

When some day you want me, well

Anticipating a future scenario where the addressed person may seek a romantic connection.

I'll be there, wait and see

Reiterating the commitment to be present when the addressed person is ready for a relationship.


Maybe baby, I'll have you

Expressing the ongoing desire to have the person addressed as "baby."

Maybe baby, you'll be true

Reiterating the hope for the addressed person to be true and sincere.

Maybe baby, I'll have you for me, yeah

Affirming the persistent desire to have the person as a romantic partner.

Maybe baby, I'll have you for me

Concluding with the continued hope to have the person as a romantic partner.
