[ Featuring Orphans ]
Maybe far away
Or maybe real near by
He may be pouring her coffee
She may be straightening this tie!
Maybe in a house
All hidden by a hill
She's sitting playing piano
He's sitting paying a bill!
Betcha they're young
Betcha they're smart
Bet they collect things
Like ashtrays, and art!
Betcha they're good
Why shouldn't they be?
Their one mistake
Was giving up me!
So maybe now it's time
And maybe when I wake
They'll be there calling me baby
Maybe
Betcha he reads
Betcha she sews
Maybe she's made me
A closet of clothes!
Maybe they're strict
As straight as a line
Don't really care
As long as they're mine!
So maybe now this prayer's
The last one of its kind
Won't you please come get your baby?
