Maybe I Mean Yes

When you asked me out and I turned you down,
Never thought that’d stop you from askin’now.
Why’d you go and give up so easily?
I thought you’d see …
CHORUS: When I say no I mean maybe.
Baby don’t you know me yet?
Nothin’s worth havin’if it ain’t a little hard to get.
So let me clarify so you won’t have to try to guess.
When I say no I mean maybe, or maybe I mean yes.
Ever since woman has talked to man, Every man’s been tryin'
to understand. What’s the harm in a little mystery?
That’s how it should be.
When I say no I mean maybe.
Baby don’t you know me yet?
Nothin’s worth havin’if it ain’t a little hard to get.
So let me clarify so you won’t have to try to guess.
When I say no I mean maybe, or maybe I mean yes.
It seems like a crazy way to be,
But it makes perfect sense to me.
When I say no I mean maybe.
Baby don’t you know me yet?
Nothin’s worth havin’if it ain’t a little hard to get.
So let me clarify so you won’t have to try to guess.
When I say no I mean maybe, or maybe I mean yes.
CHORUS: (abridged)
