Waiting For A Miracle (Live at Poplar Creek Music Theatre, Hoffman Estates, IL, September 16, 1989)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Working and waiting in the hot sun With all the rich saints, and the fallen ones Working and waiting for the night to come And they're waiting for a And they're waiting for a And they're waiting for a miracle [Verse 2] Somewhere out there is a place that's cool Where peace and balance are the rule Working for the future like some kind of mystic jewel And they're waiting for a And they're waiting for a And they're waiting for a miracle [Bridge] You rub the palm of your hand on thе grimy pane In the hopes that you can see (Whеn you're waiting) You stand up tall, pretend you're strong In the hopes that you can be (When you're waiting) Like the ones that cry, like the ones that die Trying to set the angel in us free And they're waiting for a And they're waiting for a And they're waiting for a miracle [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] You rub the palm of your hand on the grimy pane In the hopes that you can see (When you're waiting) Stand up tall, pretend you're strong In the hopes that you can be (When you're waiting) Like the ones that cry, like the ones that die Trying to set the angel in us free And they're waiting for a And they're waiting for a And they're waiting for a miracle [Verse 3] Struggle for a nickel, scuffle for a dime Forget about the past, leave your worries behind How come the future seems to take such a long, long time? When you're waiting for a When you're waiting for a When you're waiting for a miracle [Outro] When you're waiting for a When you're waiting for a When you're waiting for a miracle When you're waiting for a When you're waiting for a When you're waiting for a miracle
