A Miracle Made You
(from the CD An Angel Somewhere)
I've got a big strong pair of shoulders
If you ever need to lean on me
I'm down here waiting for you
With a big black bruise on both my knees.
If you need someplace to go
I'm here in case you ever fall
If you need someone to be there
All you have to do is call.
If you need someone to cry on
I'm down here crying pretty please
Up to my neck in my own tears
A few of yours mean nothing at all to me.
The Lords made the world in seven days
But a miracle made the Lord
Mr. Ford he made a motor car
But a miracle made Mr. Ford
A miracle makes the new born baby cry
And turns the sky to blue
And a miracle made the world complete
The day a miracle made you.
Are you real or am I dreaming
Are you fifty of fifteen?
Are you flesh and blood and bone?
Or a picture in a magazine?
Hold me when the sun goes down
And when the moon bleeds in the sky
Hold me 'til the stars go out
Until the darkness passes by.
A man can hang his head and curse the world
And drink too much and run around and grieve
You're the angel I've been praying for
I hope to God you never leave.
