Mary Chapin Carpenter - Maybe World lyrics

rate me

It's all I hate but oh so tempting

Fills me up but leaves me empty

It's all regrets and second chances

What's the point of backward glances

That lead me nowhere

I can't go back there

Everything is so uncertain

All happening to you in a whirl

That's the beauty and the hurting

Of living in a maybe world

Who can stand all those should haves

They wake us up and make us feel bad

The famous road will stay untaken

All mistakes are worth making

Go back to sleep now

It all works out somehow

Everything is so uncertain

All happening to you in a whirl

That's the beauty and the hurting

Of living in a maybe world

I'm sorry for the rain that broke the dam that caused the flood

I'm sorry for the pain but that's the way it is because

Everything is so uncertain

All happening to you in a whirl

That's the beauty and the hurting

Of living in a maybe world

Everything is so uncertain

All the garbage baby and the pearls

That's the beauty and the hurting

Of living in a maybe world
