Maybe the Next Time by Sue Medley Lyrics

Maybe the Next Time
Standin' in the phone booth and I'm
Not sure what time it is but I
Don't think it really matters
It's been a while since a talked to him
I hold my breath as the telephone starts to ring
Will he say; "How are 'ya? How 'ya been?"
And when I ask if we can get together . . . what will he say?
What will he say?
Finally a familiar hello
My hand tightens around the telephone
"It's been a while my little darlin'
I hope you're doin' well
I hope we're still friends."
We talked for a while 'till he said;
"I gotta go
There's someone waitin' for me
I had to let you know."
(Refrain)
And maybe the next time
Love will make it's way through
And maybe the next time
Old hearts will turn new
No-one counts the reasons
Why things change just like the seasons
Change inside. (It's living time.)
Maybe on the horizon
There'll be someone to confide in
Someone new
But why can't I be with you?
There's something weighing heavy in my soul
The world seems frozen, seems so cold
There'll be no celebration of love tonight
This party ended a long time ago
Guess I'll pick up all the broken pieces
And glue them back together;
Back on the shelf
Oh - ahhh . .
(Refrain x 2)
Maybe the next time . .
(maybe the next time)
Maybe the next time . .
(maybe the next time)
Maybe the next time
