What does 'Tal Vez' in the song 'Tal Vez' by Ricky Martin?

http://www.clevver.com/music/video/21525/ricky-martin-tal-vez.html

I know means vez means time and the translator translated tal vez as 'perhaps' but I don't think it makes sense in the song.

Think of it like this - vez = time Tal = such Tal vez = maybe perhaps hopefully (all refer to a future time) In English we say "until such time" (which refers to a future time)

So then here's the song... Thanks for your help

"Tal Vez - Perhaps"

Tal vez sera que esa historia ya tiene final

no se porque hoy te siento tan distante de mí

que a pesar que lo intento de nuevo

tal vez llegue tarde, ya no hay nada que hacer

y no puedo creer que el tiempo que hemos tenido tal vez se nos gastó

1 Perhaps this story already has an ending

2 I don’t know why you feel so distant from me today

3 Despite the fact that I’ll try anew

4 Perhaps it’s too late, and there is nothing to do

5 And I can’t believe that the time that we had, perhaps it’s been spent

tal vez fui yo que no te dio una noche entera

tal vez nunca te he dado lo que tú esperabas

y no estaba cuando me necesitabas

tal vez no te escuche,

Tal vez me descuide

tal vez se me olvido que yo te amaba.

6 Perhaps it was me that didn’t give you an entire night

7 Perhaps I never gave you what you were hoping for

8 And I wasn’t there when you needed me

9 Perhaps I never heard you, perhaps I neglected you

10 Perhps I forgot that I loved you

tal vez será que por ahora ya no hay nada que hablar

tal vez esta vez necesitamos tiempo para pensar

Y yo por mi parte propongo intentarlo de nuevo,volver a empezar

que por más que lo pienso no encuentro una sola razón para seguir sin tí

11 Perhaps there will be nothing to talk about

12 Perhaps this time we need time to think

13 But on my end, I prople to try it anew, let’s start again

14 Because the more I think about it, I can’t find a single reason to continue without you

Tal vez me sorprendio la vida por la espalda

y tira y tira y se rompió la cuerda

Tal vez nunca entendí lo que eras para mí

Tal vez yo nunca supe a quien amaba

15 Perhaps life surprised me at the back

16 And strip by strip the rope tore

17 Maybe I never understood what you were for me

18 Perhaps I never knew whom I loved

Tal Vez- maybe, perhaps, hopefully

Another similar word is "Quizas."
