Miracles
Steven C Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How could I face another day
It's all of my doing
I made a choice
And today I pay
My heart is full of pain
How could you understand
The way I feel
Seems as though nothing can comfort me
So today I pray
That someone should listen for
[Chorus]
Nothing should matter
Not when love grows inside you
The choice is yours
There's a miracle in store
Nothing should matter
Not when love grows inside you
A voice of love is crying out
Don't throw love away
There's a miracle in store
How could I let go of a miracle
Nothing could ever take its place
Thought I was looking
Out for myself
Now it seems the pain
Is all that I have gained
I wonder if I could be your miracle
I wonder if I could spare you pain
Seems as though nothing will comfort me
Less today I pray
That you should come listen
[Chorus]
Don't ever throw away your miracle
Don't let it slip away
Nothing should matter
[Chorus]
