Waiting For The Miracle by Leonard Cohen


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

And 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

 

You wouldn't like it there

No you wouldn't like it here

There's not much entertainment

And the critics 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

 

Baby let's get married

We've been alone too long

Let's be alone together

Let's see if we're that strong

 

Let's do something crazy

Something absolutely wrong

While we're waiting for the miracle

For the miracle to come

 

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

 

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

 

Waiting for the miracle

For the miracle to come
