Ordinary Miracles Lyrics - Maureen Mcgovern

Change can come on tiptoe, 

Love is where it starts 

It resides, 

Often hides 

Deep within our hearts 

And just as pebbles make a mountain, 

Raindrops make a sea 

One day at a time 

Change begins with you and me 

Ordinary miracles 

Happen all around 

Just by giving and receiving 

Comes belonging and believing 

Ev'ry sun that rises 

Never rose before 

Each new day 

Leads the way 

Through a diff'rent door 

And we can all be quiet heroes, 

Living quiet days 

Walking through the world 

Changing it in quiet ways 

Ordinary miracles 

Like candles in the dark 

Each and ev'ry one of us lights a spark 

And the walls can tumble 

And the mountains can move 

The winds and the tides can turn 

Ordinary miracles, 

One for ev'ry star 

No lightning bolt or clap of thunder, 

Only joy and quiet wonder 

Endless possibilities, 

Right before our eyes, 

See the way a miracle multiplies 

Hope can spring eternally, 

Plant it and it grows 

Love is all that's necessary, 

Love in its extraordinary way, 

Makes ordinary miracles ev'ry blessed day!
