Lyrics of Maybe by London Grammar
Live young
For me as well
You did always take the weather
Be the one
To carry on
Like you always do
Photographs oh you look so well
And from here
I can tell
You′ll take a step away from what was so near
And where are you now?
Without a sound
Are you there?
And a face in the crowd
Feet over harsh ground
Are you there somewhere?
Maybe, maybe, maybe
Maybe, darling
Maybe, maybe, maybe
Maybe, darling
Quiet
Company
Is for you
Is for you to keep
Photographs oh you look so well
And from here
I can tell
You'll take a step away from what was so near
And where are you now?
Without a sound
Are you there?
And a face in the crowd
Feet over harsh ground
Are you there somewhere?
Maybe, maybe, maybe
Maybe, darling
Maybe, maybe, maybe
Maybe, darling
And where are you now?
Without a sound
Are you there?
And a face in the crowd
Feet over harsh ground
Are you there somewhere?
Maybe, maybe, maybe
Maybe, darling
Are you there somewhere?
Maybe, maybe, maybe
Maybe, darling
Are you there somewhere?

The lyrics convey a sense of longing and questioning, wondering where the other person is emotionally and physically. The repeated 'Maybe, maybe, maybe' suggests the doubts and hopes that come with not knowing the true feelings or whereabouts of the person, creating a feeling of ambiguity and yearning throughout the song.
