Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I know she said it's alright
But you can make it up next time
I know she knows it's not right
There ain't no use in lyin'
[Verse 2]
Well, maybe she thinks I know something
Maybe, maybe she thinks it's fine
Or maybe she knows something I don't
I'm so, I'm so tired, I'm so tired of trying
[Chorus]
It seems to me that maybe
It pretty much always means no
So don't tell me you might just let it go
And oftentimes we're lazy
It seems to stand in my way
'Cause no one, no, not no one likes to be let down
[Verse 3]
I know she loves the sunrise
No longer sees it with her sleeping eyes and
I know that when she said she's gonna try
Well, it might not work because of other ties and, look
I know she usually has some other ties and
I wouldn't wanna break 'em, nah, I wouldn't wanna break 'em
Maybe she'll help me to untie this, but
Until then, well, I'm gonna have to lie, too
[Chorus]
It seems to me that maybe
It pretty much always means no
So don't tell me you might just let it go
And oftentimes we're lazy
It seems to stand in my way
'Cause no one, no, not no one likes to be let down
[Chorus]
It seems to me that maybe
It pretty much always means no
So don't tell me you might just let it go
[Outro]
Harder that you try, baby, the further you'll fall
Even with all the money in the whole wide world
Please, please, please don't pass me
Please, please, please don't pass
Please, please, please don't pass me by
Everything you know about me now, baby, you're gonna have to change
You're gonna call it by a brand new name, ooh, ooh, ooh
Please, please, please don't drag
Please, please, please don't drag
Please, please, please don't drag me down
Just like a tree down by the water, baby, I shall not move
Even after all the silly things you do, ooh, ooh, ooh
Please, please, please don't drag
Please, please, please don't drag
Please, please, please don't drag me down
