Waiting for a Miracle Lyrics by Jon Butcher

Pictures from the Front

0

Jonnie got back from the Vietnam war
Left some memories behind
Sometimes the sickness is no worse than the cure
But nobody seems to mind
Sweet Lorraina dancin' nude on the pier
Feels her life slippin' away
She got in trouble with a man last year
But she dances there every day
She says
What more can you do
When you can't go home?
You suffer the loneliness
But you're still alone
Yeah, but that's all right
'Cause I believe there's a miracle
(I believe)
I believe there's a miracle
(I believe in miracles)
I'm just waitin' for a miracle in my life
(I believe)
And it could be you
(Could be you)
Jonnie found work playing' Hamlet in the park
Wants to make a film someday
It ain't easy findin' light in the dark
Well, he goes there anyway
Sweet Lorraine makes the sign of a cross
Prayin' for some company
She makes a profit, but to her it's a loss
Because she, she gives away too much for free
She says
What more can you do
When you can't go home?
You suffer the loneliness
But you're still alone
Yeah, but that's all right
'Cause I believe there's a miracle
(I believe)
I believe there's a miracle
(I believe in miracles)
I'm just waitin' for a miracle in my life
(I believe)
And it could be you
(Could be you)
I believe there's a miracle
(I believe)
I believe there's a miracle
(I believe in miracles)
I'm just waitin' for a miracle in my life
(I believe)
And it could be you
(Could be you)
What more can you do
When you can't go home?
Oh, yeah
You suffer the loneliness
But you're still alone
Yeah, but that's all right
'Cause I believe there's a miracle
(I believe)
I believe there's a miracle
(I believe in miracles)
I'm just waitin' for a miracle in my life
(I believe)
And it could be you
(Could be you)
I believe there's a miracle
(I believe)
I believe there's a miracle
(I believe in miracles)
I'm just waitin' for a miracle in my life
(I believe)
And it could be you
(Could be you)
Oh, yeah
Somewhere there's a miracle
(I believe)
(Could be you)
Somewhere there's a miracle
I know, I know, I know there's a miracle
And it's up to you
