Miracles
Don Williams (Country) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Miracles, miracles, that's what life's about
Most of you must agree if you've thought it out

I can see and I can hear, I can tell you why
I can think and I can feel, I can even cry
I can walk, I can run, I can swim the sea
We had made a baby son and he looks like me
Miracles, miracles that's what life's about
Most of you must agree if you've thought it out

Well who is rich and who is poor, who has more than me
Why I have quite enough to eat, And my mind is free

Miracles, miracles that's what life's about
I found you and you found me, we are not without
We are not without
We are not without and I'm happy
We are not without




We are not without and I'm so happy
We are not without

Why he never sang this tune at his concerts is beyond me. His best ever, and he has some great ones. Most beautiful song ever!

@UGAAlum93

Beautiful song. I haven't heard it in years. Grieving the loss the Gentle Giant tonight.

@curaeus007

One of the loveliest melodies ever composed (Dvorak) with wonderful words that do it justice. Superb!

@silva147708

Making me cry today, for some reason. I love Don and his gentle voice. I'm just having a hard day I guess and I need to remember the message in this song.

It's not very often one sees the great Don Williams without a hat on. Whoever took the photo in this video is a lucky person.
