Girl, I've waited
I've waited night and day.
I haven't noticed the time,
I've waited half my life away from here.
There were plenty of invitations
and I know you sent me several,
but I was waiting
for the miracle, for the miracle to happen.
I know you loved me.
But, you see, my hands were tied.
I know it must have hurt you,
it must have hurt your pride
to stand outside my window
with your hunting horn and tambourine,
while I was up there waiting
for the miracle, for the miracle to happen.
Ah, I don't think you would have liked it,
you wouldn't have liked being here.
There's nothing to do
and the judgments are harsh.
The teacher says it's Mozart
but it sounds like chewing gum
when you're waiting
for the miracle, for the miracle to happen.
Waiting for the miracle
there's nothing left to do.
I've never been so happy
since the end of World War II.
There's nothing else to do
when you know you've been caught.
There's nothing else to do
when you beg for a crumb
There's nothing else to do
when you have to keep waiting
for the miracle to happen.
I dreamed of you, girl.
Just last night.
A good part of you was naked
ah, but some part was light.
The sands of time flowed
between your finger and thumb,
and you were waiting
for the miracle, for the miracle to happen.
Ah, girl, why don't we get married,
we've been alone for too long.
Let's stay alone together.
Let's see if we've got the strength.
Yes, let's do something crazy,
something completely wrong
while we wait
for the miracle, for the miracle to happen.
There's nothing else to do
when you know you've been caught.
There's nothing else to do
when you beg for a crumb
There's nothing else to do
when you have to keep waiting
for the miracle to happen.
When you've fallen on the highway
and you're lying in the rain
and they ask you how you are
you just say you can’t complain
If they squeeze you for information
that's when you have to pretend you're thick:
just say you're out there waiting
for the miracle, for the miracle to happen.
I've waited night and day.
