This So-Called Miracle

(album: Anything Is Possible - 1990)

[CHORUS/INTRO:]
It's gonna take a miracle
To give up my hope and get on with my life
Oh that mystic moment
A split-second stop
Of my heart
And with this miracle
Comes unwanted reality
'Cause this so-called miracle
Has turned into a tragedy

[VERSE 1:]
Baby, what ever did I do (I do, I do, I do...)
To make you not only turn away
But turn, oh so far away
Never considering turning back

[VERSE 2:]
I need you to know I'll never smile
Until we reconcile (until we reconcile)
I know now that that won't happen
Somehow I'll try and cope
But I just can't get out of my head
That glimmer of hope

Everybody tells me I need time away from you
But your the only thing in my world
And that's the last thing I wanna do

[CHORUS]

[VERSE 3:]
Baby, whatever did I do
To make you not only go away
But twist every word I say
To make the tables turn.....

[VERSE 4:]
You're saying I'm the one who's at the core
Yes, I'm the one who glanced at the door
(oh, slammed the door)
But you're the one who turned the handle
Tried to burn the candle at both ends

At both ends you lead me
On and on and on
You really, really took me
Now you've left, my mind is gone (when you left)

[CHORUS:]
And it's gonna take a miracle (it's gonna take a miracle)
To give up my hope and get on with my life
Mystic moment
A split-second stop
Of my heart
And in this miracle
Comes unwanted reality (I don't want a reality)
'Cause this so-called miracle
Is really a tragedy

[BRIDGE:]
It's easy to give advice
When your heart's not in it
But the best thing for me to do is let go
But somehow I get lonely
It's hard to stand and face the crowd
Doing a one-woman show

[CHORUS:]
It's gonna take a miracle
(Miracle, miracle...)
(It would take a miracle, miracle...)
Well everybody tells me I need time away from you
But your the only thing in my world
And that's not what I'm gonna do

It's gonna take a miracle
(It's gonna take, it's gonna take...)
To get on with my life
Oh, oh mystic moment (it's a mystic moment)
A split-second stop
Of my heart
And in this miracle
Comes unwanted reality
(it's a miracle, it's a miracle)
(I don't want a reality)
This so-called miracle
Just isn't my reality

It's gonna take a miracle
(It's gonna, it's gonna take a miracle)
To give up my hope and get on with my life
(It's gonna, it's gonna take a miracle)
Mystic moment
A split-second stop
Of my heart
And with this miracle (It's gonna take a...)
Comes unwanted reality (I don't want a reality)
This so-called miracle
Has turned into a tragedy
Tragedy Doo...

Who says it's a miracle? (who says it's a miracle?)
Who says it's a miracle?
This so-called miracle
Is really not a miracle
Who says it's a miracle?
Not me, not me...
This so-called miracle
This so-called miracle
