LEONARD COHEN - Waiting For The Miracle lyrics
rate meBaby, I've been waiting<br>I've been waiting night and day<br>I didn't see the time<br>I waited half my life away<br>There were many invitations<br>And I know you sent me some<br>But I was waiting<br>For the miracle to come<br><br>I know you really loved me<br>But, you see, my hands were tied<br>I know it must have hurt you<br>It must have hurt your pride<br>To stand beneath my window<br>With your bugle and your drum<br>While I was waiting<br>For the miracle to come<br><br>You wouldn't like it baby<br>You wouldn't like it here<br>There's not much entertainment<br>And the critics are severe<br>The maestro says it's mozart<br>But it sounds like bubble gum<br>When you're waiting<br>For the miracle to come<br><br>Chorus<br>Waiting for the miracle<br>There's nothing left to do<br>I haven't been this happy<br>Since the end of world war ii<br>Nothing left to do<br>When you know that you've been taken<br>Nothing left to do<br>When you're begging for a crumb<br>Nothing left to do<br>When you've got to go on waiting<br>For the miracle to come<br><br>I dreamed about you, baby<br>It was just the other night<br>Most of you was naked<br>But some of you was light<br>The sands of time were falling<br>]from your fingers and your thumb<br>And you were waiting<br>For the miracle to come<br><br>Baby, let's get married<br>We've been alone too long<br>Let's be alone together<br>Let's see if we're that strong<br>Let's do something crazy<br>Something absolutely wrong<br>While we're waiting<br>For the miracle to come<br><br>Chorus<br><br>When you've fallen on the highway<br>And you're lying in the rain<br>And they ask you how you're feeling<br>Of course you say you can't complain<br>If you're squeezed for information<br>That's when you've got to play it dumb<br>You just say you're out there waiting<br>For the miracle to come
