Miracle
Marie Picasso Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Used to be - that i believed
That forever would our love be strong
But gradually - it came to be
That we couldn't even get along, as time proved me wrong

It's never gonna be the same
It's never gonna change for better
And when I wanna talk it over you turn away ... Don't you know

That we're standing on the edge of time
In the shadow of a love we left behind
You and I need a miracle ...
Now I know Lady Luck is not a friend of mine
So if we're gonna stay together
It's gonna take a miracle

It's in the air - It's everywhere
Doesn't matter what I do or say
A broken dream is all we share
Still you'd rather go from day to day, and pretend we're OK

It's never gonna be the same
It's never gonna change for better
And when I wanna talk it over you turn away ... Don't you know

That we're standing on the edge of time
In the shadow of a love we left behind
You and I need a miracle ...
Now I know Lady Luck is not a friend of mine
So if we're gonna stay together
It's gonna take a miracle

I feel it in the air - it's everywhere
It's all around us...
It's never gonna be the same
It's never gonna change for better

That we're standing on the edge of time
In the shadow of a love we left behind
You and I need a miracle ...
Now I know Lady Luck is not a friend of mine




So if we're gonna stay together
It's gonna take a miracle
