[00:12]Baby, Ive been waiting,
[00:15]Ive been waiting night and day.
[00:23]I didnt see the time,
[00:27]I waited half my life away.
[00:35]There were lots of invitations
[00:39]and I know you sent me some,
[00:46]but I was waiting
[00:49]for the miracle, for the miracle to come.
[00:54]
[01:03]I know you really loved me.
[01:08]but, you see, my hands were tied.
[01:15]I know it must have hurt you,
[01:20]it must have hurt your pride
[01:27]to have to stand beneath my window
[01:31]with your bugle and your drum,
[01:37]and me Im up there waiting
[01:42]for the miracle, for the miracle to come.
[01:47]
[01:56]Ah I dont believe youd like it,
[02:02]You wouldnt like it here.
[02:08]There aint no entertainment
[02:12]and the judgements are severe.
[02:19]The Maestro says its Mozart
[02:25]but it sounds like bubble gum
[02:31]when youre waiting
[02:35]for the miracle, for the miracle to come.
[02:40]
[02:48]Waiting for the miracle
[02:55]Theres nothing left to do.
[03:02]I havent been this happy
[03:06]since the end of World War II.
[03:10]
[03:12]Nothing left to do
[03:14]when you know that youve been taken.
[03:17]Nothing left to do
[03:20]when youre begging for a crumb
[03:23]Nothing left to do
[03:26]when youve got to go on waiting
[03:30]waiting for the miracle to come.
[03:35]
[03:42]I dreamed about you, baby.
[03:46]It was just the other night.
[03:54]Most of you was naked
[03:57]Ah but some of you was light.
[04:05]The sands of time were falling
[04:09]from your fingers and your thumb,
[04:16]and you were waiting
[04:20]for the miracle, for the miracle to come
[04:25]
[04:34]Ah baby, lets get married,
[04:39]weve been alone too long.
[04:46]Lets be alone together.
[04:50]Lets see if were that strong.
[04:58]Yeah lets do something crazy,
[05:02]something absolutely wrong
[05:09]while were waiting
[05:11]for the miracle,
