Miracle
Chalk Farm Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

One - we all begin as one and only
Finding as we move along there's more to come
And there's more to come

A tear for every eye
It happens all the time!

That's the love, that's the life, that's the fear
And you know you are a miracle
That's the love, that's the life, that's the fear
And you know you are a miracle

Love - we all begin to feel the burning
Why we always judge ourselves on someone else
It's on someone else

A fear for every high
It happens all the time!

That's the love, that's the life, that's the fear
And you know you are a miracle
That's the love, that's the life, that's the fear
And you know you are a miracle

(That's how the way things are.)

A tear for every eye
It happens all the time

That's the love, that's the life, that's the fear
And you know you are a miracle
That's the love, that's the life, that's the fear
And you know you are a miracle
That's the way you want to be
And you know you are a Miracle
That's the way you'll always be
And you know you are a Miracle
Just the love, just the life, just the fear
And you know you are a miracle




That's the love, that's the life, that's the fear
And you know you are a miracle
