Maybe far away
or maybe real nearby
he may be pouring her coffee
she may be straightening his tie.

Maybe in a house
all hiden 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 shoudn't they be?
their one mistake
was giving up me.

So maybe now its 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 thease prayers
the last one of its kind.
won't you please come
get your baby, maybe.

Annie.
