Maybe It's You (Terzanelle)

by Italian Stallion   Dec 4, 2006


Maybe it's you
Or maybe it's me
But then again who knows...it's just a big mess

We never agree
What to do anymore
Or maybe it's me

I guess I just have to explore
For I just don't know
What to do anymore

I am no pro
We both know this
For I just don't know

If we can ever be in a heavenly bliss
Like old times, and
We both know this

But give it a chance
To prove it true,
Let's progress
In our romance
