Lyrics
Maybe Once or Twice © 2016 Karen Potje
Maybe once or maybe twice I fell for it
That promise that you really never meant. Well, never mind
Me and love aren't really all that blind
Except maybe once or twice
Maybe once or maybe twice I thought I saw some feeling
Something shining there from deep inside your eyes
Really though, I knew it was all lies
Except maybe once or twice
Once deceived twice wary and all set to leave
But then you do your work on me
And what a fool, 'cause I believe
Once you're gone I see how I've been strung along
And one more time I had you wrong
But once a fool then always one
Maybe once or maybe twice I fell for it
It really sounded so sincere, just too good to be true
Really, I was always on to you
Except maybe once or twice
Once deceived twice wary and all set to leave
But then you do your work on me
And what a fool, 'cause I believe
Once you're gone I see how I've been strung along
And one more time I had you wrong
But once a fool then always one
Maybe once or maybe twice you had me there
You held me and I closed my eyes, and let myself believe
Really, you had nothing over me except maybe once or twice
Except maybe once or twice
Except maybe once or twice
