Something Was Missing (Oliver Warbucks) - Voice
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 acclaims.
And two universities,
bearing my name.
Yet something was missing,
Each time I got through.
That something was
someone, but who?
Who could that somone be?
How could she make it known?
Who would need me for me,
need me for me, but who?
The word was my oyster,
but where was the pearl?
Who dreamed I would find it,
in one little girl,
Yet something was missing,
but dreams do come true.
That something is no one but you.
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 acclaims.
And two universities,
bearing my name.
Yet something was missing,
Each time I got through.
That something was
someone, but who?
Who could that somone be?
How could she make it known?
Who would need me for me,
need me for me, but who?
The word was my oyster,
but where was the pearl?
Who dreamed I would find it,
in one little girl,
Yet something was missing,
but dreams do come true.
That something is no one but you.
