A Penny for your thoughts now baby
looks like the weight of the world`s
on your shoulders now
I know you think you`re goin crazy
just when it seems everythings
gonna work itself out
they drive you right back down
and you say it ain`t fair
that a man walks
whan a bird can fly
we have to kick the ground
the stars kiss the sky
they say that spirits live
a man has to die:
they promised us truth
now they`re givin` us lies
gonna take a miracle to save us this time
and your savior has just left town
gonna need a miracle
cause it`s all on the line
and I won`t let you down
the river of your hope is floodin`
and I know the dam is bustin
if you need me i`ll come runnin
I won`t let you down oh no--
you`re lookin for salvation
and you thought that it`d be shinin`
like an angel`s light
well the angels left this nation-- and salvation
caught the last train
out tonight
(we lost a hell of a fight)
he said
I`m just one man, that`s all i`ll ever be
I never can be everything you wanted from me
I`ve got big plans
(so big)
that any blind man could see--
i`m standing in the river
now I`m drownin in the sea
gonna take a miracle
to save us this time
and your savior has just left town
gonna need a miracle
cause your heart`s on the line
and your heartbeats slowin` down
your feet are grounded still youre reachin for the sky
you can let `em clip youre wings cause
I believe that you can fly..
(solo)
well my eyes have seen the horror
of the coming of the flood
I`ve driven deep the thorny crown
into the soul of Someone`s son--
still I look you in the eyes
cause I believe the things i`ve thought
and I`ll die without regret
for the wars that i have fought
gonna take a miracle
to save you this time
and your savior has just left town
gonna need a miracle
cause your hearts doin` time
and your conscience is callin you out.....
(conscience callin..)
it ain`t all for nothin
life aint written in the sand
I know the tide is comin`
and it`s time we made a stand
with a miracle...
gonna take a miracle..
I need a miracle..
na na na na a miracle
(repeat/fade)
