Warbucks:
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
