Baby, Ive been waiting,[00:00:12]
Ive been waiting night and day.[00:00:15]
I didnt see the time,[00:00:23]
I waited half my life away.[00:00:27]
There were lots of invitations[00:00:35]
and I know you sent me some,[00:00:39]
but I was waiting[00:00:46]
for the miracle, for the miracle to come.[00:00:49]
I know you really loved me.[00:01:03]
but, you see, my hands were tied.[00:01:08]
I know it must have hurt you,[00:01:15]
it must have hurt your pride[00:01:20]
to have to stand beneath my window[00:01:27]
with your bugle and your drum,[00:01:31]
and me Im up there waiting[00:01:37]
for the miracle, for the miracle to come.[00:01:42]
Ah I dont believe youd like it,[00:01:56]
You wouldnt like it here.[00:02:02]
There aint no entertainment[00:02:08]
and the judgements are severe.[00:02:12]
The Maestro says its Mozart[00:02:19]
but it sounds like bubble gum[00:02:25]
when youre waiting[00:02:31]
for the miracle, for the miracle to come.[00:02:35]
Waiting for the miracle[00:02:48]
Theres nothing left to do.[00:02:55]
I havent been this happy[00:03:02]
since the end of World War II.[00:03:06]
Nothing left to do[00:03:12]
when you know that youve been taken.[00:03:14]
Nothing left to do[00:03:17]
when youre begging for a crumb[00:03:20]
Nothing left to do[00:03:23]
when youve got to go on waiting[00:03:26]
waiting for the miracle to come.[00:03:30]
I dreamed about you, baby.[00:03:42]
It was just the other night.[00:03:46]
Most of you was naked[00:03:54]
Ah but some of you was light.[00:03:57]
The sands of time were falling[00:04:05]
from your fingers and your thumb,[00:04:09]
and you were waiting[00:04:16]
for the miracle, for the miracle to come[00:04:20]
Ah baby, lets get married,[00:04:34]
weve been alone too long.[00:04:39]
Lets be alone together.[00:04:46]
Lets see if were that strong.[00:04:50]
Yeah lets do something crazy,[00:04:58]
something absolutely wrong[00:05:02]
while were waiting[00:05:09]
for the miracle, for the miracle to come.[00:05:11]
Nothin[00:05:26]
when you know that youve been taken.[00:05:29]
Nothing left to do[00:05:32]
when youre begging for a crumb[00:05:35]
Nothing left to do[00:05:38]
when youve got to go on waiting[00:05:40]
waiting for the miracle to come.[00:05:45]
When youve fallen on the highway[00:05:57]
and youre lying in the rain,[00:06:01]
and they ask you how youre doing[00:06:08]
of course youll say you cant complain --[00:06:12]
If youre squeezed for information,[00:06:20]
thats when youve got to play it dumb:[00:06:24]
You just say youre out there waiting[00:06:30]
for the miracle, for the miracle to come.[00:06:34]
