Lyrics[]

<poem> 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 time I 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.

Trivia[]

In the Annie (2014 Film) this was played as an instrumental instead.
