Maybe far away
or maybe real
near by
He maybe
pouring her coffee
she maybe
straight'ning his tie
Maybe in a house
all hidden by a hill
She's sitting
playing piana
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"
may....be
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 it's kind
Won't you please come
get your baby?
May...... be.....
