The Miracle
Queen Lyrics
Every drop of rain that falls in Sahara Desert says it all
It's a miracle
All God's creations great and small
The Golden Gate and the Taj Mahal
That's a miracle
Test tube babies being born
Mothers, fathers dead and gone
It's a miracle
We're having a miracle on earth
Mother nature does it all for us
The Hanging Gardens of Babylon
Captain Cook and Cain and Abel
Jimi Hendrix to the Tower of Babel
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
(It's a miracle)
It's a miracle
The one thing we're all waiting for
Is peace on Earth and end to war
It's the miracle we need, the miracle
The miracle we're all waiting for today
If every leaf on every tree
Could tell a story that would be a miracle
If every child on every street
Had clothes to wear and food to eat
That's a miracle
If all god's people could be free
To live in perfect harmony
It's a miracle
We're having a miracle on earth
Mother nature does it all for us
Open hearts and surgery
Sunday mornings with a cup of tea
Super powers always fighting
Mona Lisa just keeps on smiling
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
It's a miracle
(The wonders of this world go on)
Well it's a miracle
It's a miracle
(It's a miracle)
It's a miracle
The one thing (the one thing)
We're all waiting for (we're all waiting for)
Is peace on earth (peace on earth)
And an end to war (end to war)
It's the miracle we need, the miracle
(The miracle)
Peace on earth and end to war today
That time will come one day you'll see when we can all be friends
That time will come one day you'll see when we can all be friends
That time will come one day you'll see when we can all be friends
That time will come

The Miracle" is the fifth and last single from Queen's 1989 album The Miracle. It was composed and sung by Freddie Mercury. It was released as a single in late November 1989, some six months after the album.
The song uses the album's artwork with a hologram-like fashion.
Mercury wrote the song after he and John Deacon made some chords and decided which one would be the theme. All four contributed to the lyrics but they still all regard Mercury as Read Full BioThe Miracle" is the fifth and last single from Queen's 1989 album The Miracle. It was composed and sung by Freddie Mercury. It was released as a single in late November 1989, some six months after the album.
The song uses the album's artwork with a hologram-like fashion.
Mercury wrote the song after he and John Deacon made some chords and decided which one would be the theme. All four contributed to the lyrics but they still all regard Mercury as the composer; the song was still credited to the entire band because they had agreed to do so during the album, regardless of who had been the actual writer. While both Mercury and Brian May regarded this as one of their favourites, Roger Taylor said in the audio commentary of Greatest Video Hits II that although it wasn't a favourite of his, he respected it as "an incredibly complex track".
The song describes several of "God's creations, great and small", such as great buildings like the Taj Mahal and the Tower of Babel, all described as "miracles" in the song. The song also references such well-known figures as Captain Cook, Cain and Abel, and Jimi Hendrix.
The music video for the song features four young boys - including a then-unknown Ross McCall as Mercury - performing as Queen on stage. Throughout the video, McCall appears dressed as several different incarnations of Mercury: '70s era (long hair and striped leotard), early '80s (thick mustache, leather jacket and denim jeans, as seen in the "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" video), Live Aid '85 (white tanktop, armband, and jeans), and Magic Tour '86 (the iconic yellow leather jacket, white pants and sneakers). Queen themselves only appear near the end of the video. According to Roger Taylor, Mercury joked about sending the boys out on tour instead of them because of how well they did in the video.

The perfromances here are phenomenal. Mini Freddie is INSANE. He even has the conviction in his glistening eyes. His movements are MWAH! spot on. I love this video.
The Miracle album has such a soft spot in my heart as I was a teenager at the time it came out. Only one other girl in my class liked Queen [everyone was listening to Nirvana]. I listened to this album over and over. I didn't know of anyone else in the world listening to it when it came out other than me. Imagine those days.
Now we'd find other Queen fans immediately on the internet. Perviously we had to encounter them randomly and hope they were as big of a fan as we were. HA :D
To me, this album and Innuendo go hand in hand as Freddie's last triumphant exit. They both felt like a return to a more classic Queen album.
ANYWAY, this video is everything and I come back to this all the time to remind myself how crazy the world is. Squint your eyes and watch Fred. Or, see it as a very loving tribute. Beautifully realised. I can't believe how well mini fred captures his essence in movement. <3

"THE MIRACLE"
Verse 1]
Every drop of rain that falls
In Sahara Desert says it all
It's a miracle
All God's creations great and small
The Golden Gate and the Taj Mahal
That's a miracle
test tube babies being born
Mothers, fathers dead and gone
It's a miracle
[Chorus 1]
We're having a miracle on earth
Mother nature does it all for us
The wonders of this world go on
The hanging Gardens of Babylon
Captain Cook and Cain and Abel
Jimi Hendrix to the Tower of Babel
It's a miracle, it's a miracle
It's a miracle, it's a miracle
[Chorus 2]
The one thing we're all waiting for
Is peace on earth - an end to war
It's a miracle we need - the miracle
The miracle we're all waiting for today
[Verse 2]
If every leaf on every tree
Could tell a story that would be
A miracle
If every child on every street
Had clothes to wear and food to eat
That's a miracle
If all God's people could be free
To live in perfect harmony
It's a miracle
[Chorus 1]
We're having a miracle on earth
Mother nature does it all for us
Open hearts and surgery
Sunday mornings with a cup of tea
Super powers always fighting
Mona Lisa just keeps on smiling
It's a miracle, it's a miracle
It's a miracle, it's a miracle
(Wonders of this world go on)
It's a miracle, it's a miracle
It's a miracle, it's a miracle
[Chorus 2]
The one thing (the one thing)
We're all waiting for (we're all waiting for)
Is peace on earth (peace on earth)
And an end to war (an end to war)
It's a miracle we need - the miracle
The miracle peace on earth and end to war
Today
[Outro]
That time will come one day you'll see
When we can all be friends
That time will come one day you'll see
When we can all be friends
That time will come one day you'll see
When we can all be friends
That time will come one day you'll see
When we can all be friends
