Lyrics

[00:11.410] Baby, I've been waiting
[00:15.490] I've been waiting night and day
[00:23.150] I didn't see the time
[00:26.820] So I waited half my life away
[00:34.490] There were lots of invitations
[00:38.370] And I know you sent me some
[00:45.340] But I was waiting
[00:51.800] For the miracle
[00:56.010] For the miracle to come
[01:03.170] I know you really loved me
[01:07.570] But, you see, my hands were tied
[01:14.230] I know it must have hurt you
[01:19.580] It must have hurt your pride
[01:26.300] To have to stand beneath my window
[01:30.760] With your bugle and your drum
[01:37.010] And me I'm up there waiting
[01:44.000] For the miracle
[01:48.810] For the miracle to come
[02:01.700] Ah, I don't believe you'd like it
[02:06.810] You wouldn't like it here
[02:13.720] There ain't no entertainment
[02:18.740] And the judgements are severe
[02:26.330] The maestro says it's Mozart
[02:30.640] But it sounds like bubble gum
[02:36.800] When you're waiting
[02:43.260] For the miracle
[02:48.210] For the miracle to come
[02:56.270] Waiting for the miracle
[03:01.560] There's nothing left to do
[03:07.750] I haven't been this happy
[03:12.830] Since the end of World War II
[03:18.320] Nothing left to do
[03:20.330] When you know that you've been taken
[03:23.810] Nothing left to do
[03:26.450] When you're begging for a crumb
[03:29.920] Nothing left to do
[03:32.300] When you've got to go on waiting
[03:36.240] Waiting for the miracle to come
[03:48.090] I dreamed about you, baby
[03:53.090] It was just the other night
[03:59.870] Most of you was naked
[04:04.300] Ah, but some of you was light
[04:10.570] The sands of time were falling
[04:15.530] From your fingers and your thumb
[04:22.250] And you were waiting
[04:28.080] For the miracle
[04:32.130] For the miracle to come
[04:40.390] Ah baby, let's get married
[04:45.030] We've been alone too long
[04:51.280] Let's be alone together
[04:56.490] Let's see if we're that strong
[05:03.320] Yeah let's do something crazy
[05:08.000] Something absolutely wrong
[05:14.830] While we're waiting
[05:20.290] For the miracle
[05:24.180] For the miracle to come
[05:31.400] Nothing left to do
[05:34.330] When you know that you've been taken
[05:37.290] Nothing left to do
[05:39.940] When you're begging for a crumb
[05:42.890] Nothing left to do
[05:45.450] When you've got to go on waiting
[05:50.090] Waiting for the miracle to come
[06:06.900] When you've fallen on the highway
[06:11.920] And you're lying in the rain
[06:18.820] And they ask you how you're doing
[06:22.760] Of course you'll say you can't complain
[06:30.300] If you're squeezed for information
[06:34.470] That's when you've got to play it dumb
[06:41.300] You say you're out there waiting
[06:47.840] For the miracle
[06:52.300] For the miracle to come
