Björk - Possibly Maybe

The song details different stages of a breakup. Björk says it was "the first unhappy song I wrote... I felt ashamed writing a song that was not giving hope". The melancholic piece was dedicated to her broken relationship with Stéphane Sednaoui, who, curiously, also directed the video.

Your flirt finds me out
teases the crack in me
smittens me with hope

possibly maybe, possibly maybe, possibly maybe.

as much as i definitely enjoy solitude
i wouldn't mind perhaps
spending little time with you
sometimes
sometimes

possibly maybe probably love
possibly maybe probably love

uncertainly excites me
baby
who knows what's going to happen?
lottery or car crash
or you'll join a cult

possibly maybe probably love
this is probably maybe, possibly love, possibly

mon petit vulcan
you're eruptions and disasters
i keep calm
admiring your lava
i keep calm

possibly maybe probably love
possibly maybe probably love

electric shocks?
I love them!
with you dozen a day
but after a while I wonder
where's that love you promised me?
where is he?

possibly maybe probably love
possibly maybe probably love

how can you offer me love like that?
my heart's burned
how can you offer me love like that?
i'm exhausted
leave me alone

possibly maybe, possibly maybe, possibly maybe.

since we broke up
i'm using lipstick again
i'll suck my tongue
as a remembrance of you
