lyrics

This may be
(c) 2008 Andy Ard

This may be the moment I've been waiting for
If the time is right, I'll know just what to do
But I can't see beyond the hazy neverness of now

Do I dare make a mess of everything
Hesitate or stumble right ahead
Do I, don't I have a shred of certainty left in me
'Cause I need it tonight
Oh how right
This may be

This may be the only one to come along
But how would I know if it never has before
Well not like this, you see, all the other ones were different
At least I think that's how it went

This may be the day I hang up all my fears
Make myself a possibility
Why not, I'm not gonna pass this way again
When forever does me in
But not tonight
I won't fight what this may be
this may be
