Miracle Lyrics - Bernard Crystal

In a Holiday Inn, in a bar, in a corner 

A man sat starin' at the life that he'd been handed 

Prayin' for a miracle to let him sleep 

He's got a woman back home and a woman in the city 

Both of them sittin' by the phone and he can't stand it 

How could such a simple man be in so deep 

When he believes in the miracle of love 

And she believes the same 

And he believes that the woman that shares his love 

Should share his name, should share his name 

Well, his head's sayin' no and his heart's sayin' maybe 

Torn between the places he's been sleepin' 

Prayin' for a miracle that he won't get caught 

He's just an old-fashioned man with a modem day problem 

Weighted down by the secrets he's been keepin' 

The things he didn't think about and the things he thought 

When he believes in the miracle of love 

And she believes the same 

And he dozed off thinkin' that the woman that bears his child 

Should bear his name, should bear his name 

There's a page turned down in the family Bible 

God never wrote what it said in there 

It's the name and the number of a woman 

In Memphis, Tennessee 

Not a chapter away from the crossin' of the Jordan 

Pain that only she can bear 

She's got the same full name as a woman in Memphis 

She believes in the miracle of love 

She better believe the same 

'Cause he believes that the women that share his love 

Can share his name, can share his name
