Shangri-Las Maybe (Live) Lyrics:
[Betty:]
Maybe if pray every night,
[Applause.]
You'll come back to me,
And maybe if I cry everyday,
You'll come back to stay.
Ohh, maybe.

Maybe if I hold your hand,
You will understand.
And maybe if I kiss your lips,
I'll be at your doormat.
Ohh, Maybe.

I pray and pray to the Lord,
To send me back our love,
But instead you came to me,
Only in my dreams.

Maybe if pray every night,
You'll come back to me,
And maybe if I cry everyday,
You'll come back to stay.
Ohh, maybe.

[1] Personnel: Identical twins, Mary Anne & Marguerite "Marge" Ganser and
siblings, Mary & Elizabeth "Betty" Weiss [1a] , formed the original act. Mary
Weiss was the main, lead singer, Betty, however, took lead on "Maybe," and
a number of B-sides and album tracks, Marge Ganser took lead on "I'm Blue"
and Mary Ann Ganser took the lead on "Sophisticated Boom Boom."]

[1a] Because Betty was underage, her mother did not allow her to tour until
1966, when she became 18. As a result she often did not appear in photos,
and many fans believed the Shangri-Las were a trio. Few pictures show all 4
of the girls.]
