作词 : Bradberry, Lunn . . . I used to kiss Maxine through the front door screen Standin' on her mama's steps And if her daddy hadn't come along and run me off I know I'd have never left It's a cryin' shame but that's they way it was Something always there to separate us . Well I tried not to let it show But everyone seemed to know There's something between Me and Maxine . She used to wave at me from across the street Through her bedroom window every night She was almost close enough for me to touch But I still couldn't hold her tight That's how it's been right from the start Always something there to keep us apart . Well I tried not to let it show But everyone seemed to know There's something between Me and Maxine There's something between Me and Maxine . All the things that came between us Couldn't change a thing Now we're together And that's how we're gonna stay 'Cause our love just grows A little more with every day . No I'm never gonna let her go 'Cause in my heart I know There's something between Oh I just want to hold her close 'Cause in my heart I know There's something between There's something between There's something between Me and Maxine Me and Maxine I know I know there's somethin' Somethin' between I know I know there's somethin' Somethin' between Me and Maxine Somethin' between Me and Maxine .
