Waiting For The Miracle

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
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

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
