Miracle
Mr. Manhattan Lyrics

The song Miracle by Mr. Manhattan beautifully depicts the feeling of heartbreak and how difficult it is to move on. The opening lines, "Loving you so, I was too blind to see you letting me go. But now that you've set me free" portrays how the writer was unaware of the fact that their significant other didn't feel the same way and was soon going to leave. Now that they have left, the writer is struggling to let go and move on, they need a miracle to forget about their lover and love someone new.

The chorus "It's gonna take a miracle, Yes, it's gonna take a miracle, To make me love someone new, 'Cause I'm crazy for you" showcases how difficult it is for the writer to fall in love with someone new. The phrase "I'm crazy for you" showcases their love for their significant other and how they were blindsided by the breakup. The phrase "Didn't you know it wouldn't be so easy letting me go, You can be sure that now" further adds to the idea that the writer is seeking closure and wants their significant other to know the impact of their departure.

In the second verse, "Tho' I know I can't forget about you, I'm gonna try to show you how much you're turning me around, destroying me, I'll never be the same anymore" suggests that the writer knows they can't forget their significant other and highlights the struggle they are going through to move on. The writer feels like they have been destroyed and that they could never be the same again.

Overall, the song beautifully depicts the idea of heartbreak and moving on. The writer's emotions are so vividly portrayed that anyone who has gone through a heartbreak before can relate to them.
