T-Minus two hours and counting...

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.

I don't believe you'd like it
You wouldn't like it here.
There ain't no entertainment
and the judgments 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.

Waiting for the miracle...
There's nothing left to do.

I haven't 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
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.

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.

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'll 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.

the future
