Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You turned me round and made the colours true
In you I found my Odyssey and Oracle
No longer blind, I see because of you
When I was young, I didn't notice much
I concentrated on myself
But later, I stumbled
Suffered such a fall from grace
Hardly knew my place
Until I found you
In my mind a miracle
You turned me round and made the colours true
In you I found my Odyssey and Oracle
No longer blind, I still depend on you
Every day I see it in a better way
Every night I feel it coming through - and I do
I'm back now - I'm running
The things that I've done in
Retrospect have caused me pain
But here I go again
I tell you right now
In my mind a miracle
You turned me round and made the colours true
In you I've found my Odyssey and Oracle
No longer blind, I see because of you
The song "In My Mind A Miracle" by Rod Argent and Colin Blunstone is a nostalgic tale of how finding love and companionship helped the singer turn his life around. The first verse explains how the singer was once lost and unsure of his place in the world, focusing on himself rather than his surroundings. It is by chance that he found the person who would change his outlook and make his world brighter, as referenced in the line "You turned me round and made the colors true." This line is a metaphor for the way the singer's life has been transformed by love.
The second verse establishes how the singer's life has been better since discovering this life-changing love. He contrasts his current contentment with the state of misery he experienced before meeting his mysterious partner. He sees his life without love as a "stumble," a "trip," and a "fall from grace." The chorus repeats, emphasizing the notion that the singer sees the person he loves as his own personal Odyssey and Oracle – an answer to everything in his life – and that he now sees the world in a completely different way, no longer "blind" because of this newfound love.
The final verse hammers home the point that the singer is a changed man since finding love. He is no longer burdened by his past mistakes and regrets, and he is able to move forward with the support and love of his partner. The chorus is repeated again, affirming that the miracle of love in the singer's mind has changed everything.
