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 many invitations And I know you sent me some But I was waiting 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 stand beneath my window With your bugle and your drum While I was waiting For the miracle to come
You wouldn't like it baby You wouldn't like it here There's not much entertainment And the critics are severe The maestro says it's mozart But it sounds like bubble gum When you're waiting For the miracle to come
(Chorus:)
Waiting for the miracle There's nothing left to do I havent 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 For the miracle to come
I dreamed about you, baby It was just the other night Most of you was naked 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 to come
Baby, lets get married We've been alone too long Lets be alone together Lets see if were that strong Lets do something crazy Something absolutely wrong While were waiting For the miracle to come
(Repeat Chorus)
When you've fallen on the highway And you're lying in the rain And they ask you how youre feeling 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 to come
