Waiting For The Miracle Lyrics - Cohen Leonard

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 

I know you really loved me 

But, you see, my hands were tied 

And 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 

Ah I don't believe you'd like it, 

You wouldn't like it here 

There ain't no entertainment 

And the judgments 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 

I haven't been this happy 

Since the end of World War II 

Nothing left to do 

When you know that you've been taken 

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 

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 

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 

Nothing left to do 

When you know that you've been taken 

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 

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'll 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
