The

working
hard
on
scrubbing
the
floors,
washing
the
sheets
when
Annie

Molly
crying
Annie:
Whats

Molly?
Molly:
Sometimes
I
feel
like
Im
never
going
to
get
a
family
to
adopt
me
Annie:
Dont
worry
Molly,
theyre
out
there
they
just
havent
found
their
way
to
you
yet.
You
just
cant
give
up
hope.
Song:
Maybe
(company)
Maybe
far
away,
or
maybe
real
nearby,
He
may
be
pouring
her
coffee,
She
may
be
straightning
his
tie.
Maybe
in
a
house
all
hidden
by
a
hill,
Shes
sittin
playing
pianah,
Hes
sittin
payin
a
bill.
Betcha
theyre
young,
betcha
theyre
smart,
Bet
they
collect
things
like
ash
trays
and
art.
Betcha
theyre
good,
why
shouldnt
they
be?
Theyre
one
mistake
was
givin
up
me.
So,
maybe
now
its
time,
and
maybe
when
I
wake,
Theyll
be
there
calling
me
Baby,
Maybe
Betcha
he
reads,
betcha
she
sews,
Maybe
shes
made
me
a
closet
of
clothes,
Maybe
theyre
strict,
as
straight
as
a
line,
Dont
really
care
as
long
as
theyre
mine.
So,
maybe
now
this
prayers
the
last
one
of
its
kind.
Wont
you
please
come
get
your
baby,
Maybe.

Youve

Youre

Youre

On
Main

Saville

Its
what

from

And

from

that
matters.
