Annie: Something Was Missing

I’ve made me a fortune
(That fortune made ten)
Been headlined
And profiled
Again and again
But something was missing
(I never quite knew)
That something was someone --
But who?
My speeches are greeted
With thunderous acclaim
At two universities
Bearing my name
Yes, something was missing
Each timeI got through
That something was someone --
But who?
Who could that someone be?
How could she make it known?
Who would need me for me?
Need me for me alone?
he world was my oyster --
But where was the pearl?
Who dreamed I could find it Yes something was missing --
But dreams can come true
That something
Is no one
But you
Who would need me for me?
Need me for me alone
The world was my oyster
But where was the pearl?
Who’d dream I would find it In one little girl?
Yes, something was missing
But dreams do come true
That something is no one… but you.
