Maybe...

Sometimes I catch myself

Looking at you too long

Then I look away so quickly

And pretend that nothing's wrong (mm...)

You make me laugh so easily

You don't even have to try

And sometimes when you're talking

I forget to hide my smile (oh...)

The others don't seem to notice

Or maybe they just don't say

But I've started thinking things

I probably shouldn't think this way

Like what if you held my hand?

What if you wanted me? (what if...)

What if one day you looked at me

The way I look at you?

Then I tell myself to stop

Because I know it's probably not true

You're my friend

And I don't want to lose you (no...)

So I keep it to myself

This little secret in my heart

I imagine being your girl

Then I push the thought away (away...)

I don't think you'd see me like that

I'm just the girl who's always here

The one you laugh with

The one you talk to

The one who's always been your friend

But sometimes when we're alone

I let myself pretend

(just for a minute...)

I wonder what it'd feel like

If you asked me out someday

Would I know what I should say?

Would I probably look away? (probably...)

Would you put your hand in mine

When we're walking somewhere?

Would you call me beautiful

Like you actually meant it?

I know it sounds ridiculous

So I keep it in my head

Because if you don't feel the same

I'd rather not have it said

Maybe I'm not the kind of girl

A boy like you would choose

So I'll keep these little dreams

That nobody gets to lose (my little dream...)

Because what if I tell you

And everything changes?

What if I lose the one person

I don't want to lose?

So I'll laugh when you tease me

And pretend my heart is fine

Even when I'm secretly wishing

You were holding my hand in mine (just once...)

So I keep it to myself

This little secret in my heart

I imagine being your girl

Then I push the thought away

I don't think you'd see me like that

I'm just the girl who's always here

The one you laugh with

The one you talk to

The one who's always been your friend

But sometimes when we're alone

I let myself pretend

(maybe someday...)

Maybe someday you'll notice

Maybe someday you'll know

Maybe someday I'll be brave enough

To tell you what I feel (maybe...)

But for now I'll keep your friendship

Because that's more than enough

Even if a little part of me

Still wishes it could be love

And if you never feel the same

I'll probably be okay

(I think...)

So I'll keep it to myself

This little secret in my heart

I'll dream about being your girl

But I won't let it go too far

Because I don't think you'd choose me

And I'm scared to find out why

So I'll stay right here beside you

And keep pretending I'm alright (I'm alright...)

Maybe one day

You'll look at me differently

Until then you're my friend

And that's where I'll stay

Even if secretly

I wish you felt the same

(maybe someday...)

Maybe someday... (mm...)

Or maybe I'll just keep dreaming...
