Maybe It's You
(lyrics by John Bettis, music by Richard Carpenter)
Maybe it's you, maybe it's me
Maybe it's just the constant rhythm of the sea
Maybe it's just that I have never been the kind
Who can pass a lucky penny by
Maybe it's wise, maybe it's not
Maybe it's you who brought the caring I forgot
Isn't it nice to talk about the special way
That you smile whenever I'm around?
Rising on the shore the ocean came
Walks along the waves of velveteen
His only thought was love for me
Couldn't we stay or must you go?
Couldn't we stay and watch the splashing rocks we throw?
Only a fool would want to leave the paradise
That I find whenever you're around
Only a fool
Only a fool

I can't imagine how many beautiful songs we never were not able to hear over the past 40 years since she left us so early. Her and Richard would stillbe performing today. I'm so sad we missed so much.
Her voice is so amazing in this song
I have a new favorite.But every song I hersing is a favorite. She was amazing. My heart aches because she was never loved by someone special.
Perfection is the way Karen sings this song. She was the greatest musical talent ever and still is.
Add my vote for the finest female vocalist of all time and for my tastes, the finest regardless of gender. It's what her voice does to my soul, resonating with me on a spiritual level.
Well said Chuck! The FINEST HUMAN SINGER EVER!
As a singer, PERFECTION should have been Karen,s middle name! Other worldly talent!
She could make anything sound good. No. Amazing.
one of my favorites.
The Voice of the Heart ❤
Many have tried to sing like Karen,none can compare to Karen's beautiful voice. r.i.p gorgeous lady ❤
Amen to this! Karen was and is in a class all alone! She can,t be replicated !
Dearly missed 😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Oh my gosh this is so hauntingly beautiful! This is one of my favorite Carpenter songs. I have never seen it performed live. Makes me tear up.
This is one of the sweetest, most beautiful songs in The Carpenters song catalog. I think tremendously underrated, the harmonies and arrangement coupled with Karen's angelic vocals are why this song is special.❤❤
Her voice was a gift from God that she shared with the masses.
So, I was thinking I didn't really want to hear this song again, but I tuned in, and then I heard the voice. It's absolutely amazing how perfect it is.
Take her in small doses.....
She is highly addictive ❤
I would imagine when I get to heaven she will be singing somewhere 🥰🥰
One of Karen's best!
One of Karen’s earliest and a beautiful balland too . Such an angelic voice!! Miss you so Karen . Beautiful!!😂❤❤
What a performance of 20 years of age
I used to sing this to my children. My voice sounds like a croak compared to hers, lol!
But I'm betting your rendition is beautiful, Patricia!
Tears. Again.
I gave no mind to the Capenters back in the day, but my senses are keenly aware now and will be always. Karen, dear borrowed angel, I have no words...❣
Beautiful tribute Jody to the best sister who has ever lived!
SINGER
Simply amazing!!
How does she make such outstanding vocals look so effortless?!
Karen was purely and simply on a higher level of greatness than any other singer in the history of music!
Karen had the sweetest voice ever I just wish she was still alive 😢😢
Thanks for posting, 12-5-23
Cannot get enough of this tune, listened to this and other tunes off the Close to You album at Christmas, 1970. I just stared at the beautiful tree all the while enchanted and mesmerized by her voice. It was almost holy. This was long before they recorded their Christmas songs. Still sounds like the holidays to me. Miss you Karen so much......
