Waiting For The Miracle

1. Baby I've been waiting I've been waiting night and day

I didn't see the time I waited half my life away

there were lots of invitations and I know you sent me some

but I was waiting for the miracle

for the miracle to come

2. I know you really loved me but you see my hands were tied

I know it must have hurt you it must have hurt your pride

to have to stand beneath my window with your bugle and your drum

and me I'm up there waiting for the miracle

for the miracle to come

3. Ah I don't believe you'd like it you wouldn't like it here

there ain't no entertainment and the judgements are severe

the Maestro says it's Mozart but it sounds like bubble gum

when you're waiting for the miracle

for the miracle to come

*: Waiting for the miracle there's nothing left to do

H7 Emi

I haven't been this happy since the end of World War II

Ami

R: Nothing left to do when you know that you've been taken

Emi

nothing left to do when you're begging for a crumb

nothing left to do when you've got to go on waiting

waiting for the miracle to come

4. Yeah I dreamed about you baby it was just the other night

most of you was naked ah but some of you was light

the sands of time were falling from your fingers and your thumb

and you were waiting for the miracle

for the miracle to come

5. Ah baby let's get married we've been alone too long

let's be alone together let's see if we're that strong

yeah let's do something crazy something absolutely wrong

while we're waiting for the miracle

for the miracle to come

R: Nothing left to do...

6. When you've fallen on the highway and you're lying in the rain

and they ask you how you're doing of course you say you can't complain

if you're squeezed for information that's when you've got to play it dumb

you just say you're out there waiting for the miracle

for the miracle to come
