Maybe This Time Lyrics - Dan Hill

You avoid your daddy's disapproving eyes 

Your silence hurts like a lover's lie 

Your mama walks such a fragile line 

The tears will love, but you don't cry 

With a trembling hand you wave goodbye 

Gonna catch a plane to another life 

You swore this time wouldn't try so hard to please everyone 

As you streak across the sky 

You feel the loneliness coming on 

Maybe this time he'll come back 

With you like he promised to 

Maybe this once your star will shine 

Maybe he won't break your heart this time 

And all your life you've heard it said 

That you could never quite fit in 

Till you froze your heart 

Acted like you couldn't hear them 

You swore this time wouldn't try so hard to please him 

You show a little pride but as you touch down 

You wonder if he's really waiting 

Oh, maybe this time he'll come back 

With you like he promised to 

Maybe this once your star will shine 

Maybe he won't break your heart this time 

Close your eyes, you see his face 

Hear his voice, his skin you taste 

Too many nights you spent alone 

Your arms just reaching out for someone to hold 

Maybe this time he'll come back with you like he promised to 

Maybe this once your star will shine 

(Maybe this time) 

Maybe he won't break your heart this time 

Maybe he won't break your heart this time
