Leonard Cohen - Waiting For The Miracle Lyrics
Baby, Ive been waitingIve been waiting night and dayI didnt see the timeI waited half my life awayThere were many invitationsAnd I know you sent me someBut I was waitingFor the miracle to comeI know you really loved meBut, you see, my hands were tiedI know it must have hurt youIt must have hurt your prideTo stand beneath my windowWith your bugle and your drumWhile I was waitingFor the miracle to comeYou wouldnt like it babyYou wouldnt like it hereTheres not much entertainmentAnd the critics are severeThe maestro says its mozartBut it sounds like bubble gumWhen youre waitingFor the miracle to comeChorusWaiting for the miracleTheres nothing left to doI havent been this happySince the end of world war iiNothing left to doWhen you know that youve been takenNothing left to doWhen youre begging for a crumbNothing left to doWhen youve got to go on waitingFor the miracle to comeI dreamed about you, babyIt was just the other nightMost of you was *****But some of you was lightThe sands of time were falling]from your fingers and your thumbAnd you were waitingFor the miracle to comeBaby, lets get marriedWeve been alone too longLets be alone togetherLets see if were that strongLets do something crazySomething absolutely wrongWhile were waitingFor the miracle to comeChorusWhen youve fallen on the highwayAnd youre lying in the rainAnd they ask you how youre feelingOf course you say you cant complainIf youre squeezed for informationThats when youve got to play it dumbYou just say youre out there waitingFor the miracle to come
