The lyrics depict the narrator's struggle to make a definitive decision, oscillating between "yes," "no," and "maybe." In the first verse, the narrator acknowledges that their heart still wavers whenever they hear the voice of their love interest. Despite intending to have a brief conversation, their emotions take control, causing further uncertainty. The chorus encapsulates the internal struggle the narrator faces. They question their true feelings, unable to understand the complexity of their own heart. Despite longing to avoid their love interest, they find themselves continuously drawn back to them. The repetition of "Yes, no, maybe" reinforces the confusion and indecision plaguing the narrator. The post-chorus repetition of "Yes" and "No" adds emphasis to the conflicting nature of the narrator's emotions. The back-and-forth pattern reflects the tug-of-war happening within their heart. In the second verse, the narrator pleads for their love interest not to leave, as they know they will easily fall back into their feelings once they meet again. The final chorus and post-chorus mirror the earlier themes, emphasizing the narrator's struggle to resist their love interest while acknowledging that they cannot avoid them completely. They admit their self-resentment for being unable to let go, an internal battle captured by the line "This side of me that I can't understand." Ultimately, the song captures the turmoil of being caught between conflicting emotions and desires, unable to definitively say "yes" or "no" to a complicated relationship. The continuous repetition of "Yes, no, maybe" throughout the song highlights the ongoing struggle to determine the true nature of the narrator's heart. Written by
