EmBaby I've been waiting DI've been waiting night and Emday
I didn't see the time DI waited half my life aEmway
there were Dlots of invitations and I know you sent me D#dimsome B7
but I was EmwaiDting for the CmiraDcle
for the D#dimmiracle to come H7, Emi
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
Ah I don't believe you'd like it you wouldn't like it here
there ain't no entertainment and the judgements 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
AmWaiting for the miracle there's Emnothing left to do
B7I haven't been this happy since the Emend of World War II
R: Nothing left to Amdo when you know that you've been taken
nothing left to Emdo when you're begging for a crumb
nothing left to Cdo when you've got to go on waiting
D#dimwaiting for the miracle to Bcome
Yeah 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
R:
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 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
