The Queen of Maybe
Lyrics
Verse 1
She arrives past midnight
Like she owns the weather
Silver in her laughter
Storm clouds in her letters
Everybody watches
From their little tables
Trying to decide
If she's a myth or a woman
Tonight
---
Pre-Chorus
One look
One smile
One more unanswered question
---
Chorus
She's the Queen of Maybe
Ruler of the in-between
Queen of Maybe
Never quite what she seems
One hand on tomorrow
One foot out the door
The Queen of Maybe
Always leaving more
---
Verse 2
The bartender calls her
"Your Majesty"
She bows like she's heard it
A thousand times before
She keeps old promises
Folded in her pocket
Along with train tickets
To places she won't name
---
Pre-Chorus
Half the room
Falls in love
The other half
Already did
---
Chorus
She's the Queen of Maybe
Keeper of the uncertain heart
Queen of Maybe
Pulling certainty apart
Every road leads toward her
None of them arrive
The Queen of Maybe
Keeping dreams alive
---
Bridge
She wears no crown
Just city lights
No castle walls
Just Saturday night
No royal guard
No grand parade
Just the strange power
Of what she doesn't say
---
Break
Long live
The Queen
Long live
The dream
---
Final Chorus
She's the Queen of Maybe
Dancing through the neon rain
Queen of Maybe
Beautifully unexplained
Some people chase answers
Some chase mystery
The Queen of Maybe
Has both of them chasing
Her
---
Outro
Last train leaving
Still she stays
The Queen of Maybe
