(I'll Never Be) Your Maggie May

Lyrics

I'll never be your Maggie May
 The one you loved and left behind
 The face you see in light of day
 Then you cast away
 That isn't me in that bed you'll find
 I'd rather take myself away
 Be like those ladies in Japan
 Rather paint myself a face
 Conjure up some grace
 Or be the eyes behind a fan
 And so you go
 No girl could say no
 To you
 Oh, there's the way I may appear
 But that will change from day to night
 Would you ever see within?
 Underneath the skin?
 Could I believe you had that sight?
 ♪
 And so you go
 No girl could say no
 To you
 I'll never be your Maggie May
 The one you loved and then forgot
 I'll love you first and let you go
 Because it must be so
 And you'll forgive or you will not
 And so a woman leaves a man
 And so a world turns on it's end
 So I'll see your face in dreams
 Where nothing's what it seems
 Still you appear some kind of friend
 And so you go
 No girl could say no
 To you
