Maybe it's just those same old things

Maybe it's just a waste of time

This reminds me so much of the day you said goodbye

And as you walked away still I would not admit

you were right, you were right



But then now it's a different state of things

Maybe it's more than I can take

'Cause it seems like the world's against me now

And I need someone to show me how

But I still can't admit you were right, you were right

and I was wrong



Maybe I could change

Maybe I could change the world

Maybe I could change myself

Maybe I could change the world

Maybe I could have your love

I've been holding my hopes so high

But can't you help me now, my arms are so tired



And maybe they made the world that way

Maybe it's just a waste of time

Just like me, they turn the other way

And just like me, can't bring themselves to say

Now I know the mistakes that I have made

And if I try and if it's not too late

Then I can maybe admit you were right,

you were right, and I was wrong
