Lyrics
MIRACLES
THEY BURIED THEIR SON ON SATURDAY
HE’D BARELY TURNED EIGHTEEN
THE NEXT DAY ONE WHITE FLOWER GREW
THAT THEY HAD NEVER SEEN
AND IT NEVER SHOULD HAVE GROWN THERE
IN THE COLD AND STONY SOIL
BUT THEY TOOK IT FOR A MIRACLE
A MESSAGE FROM THEIR BOY
SOMETIMES WE DON’T KNOW WHY THE THINGS THAT HAPPEN
HAPPEN LIKE THEY DO
SOMETIMES WE CANNOT FIND THE RHYME OR REASON
HIDDEN IN THE RUINS
SOMETIMES IT’S NOT FOR US TO KNOW
SOMETIMES THE MYSTERY IS SHOWN
SOMETIMES RIGHT OUT OF ROCKY GROUND
MIRACLES ARE FOUND
THE NEXT DAY FIVE MORE FLOWERS GREW
IN A CIRCLE AROUND THE FIRST
THEY COULD FEEL HIS SPIRIT CLOSE
WHEN A CALL CAME FROM THE NURSE
SHE SAID NO WORDS CAN MEASURE UP
TO THE GIFTS THAT YOUR SON GAVE
BUT FROM THE ONE THAT YOU LOST
FIVE LIVES WERE SAVED
CHORUS:
BRIDGE
(THEIR SON’S) HEART IS STILL BEATING IN ONE MANS CHEST
BECAUSE OF HIM ANOTHER CAN TAKE ANOTHER BREATH
A BLIND GIRL SEES THE COLORS OF HER FIRST SUNSET
CHORUS :
SOMETIMES WE DON’T KNOW WHY THE THINGS THAT HAPPEN
HAPPEN LIKE THEY DO
SOMETIMES WE CANNOT FIND THE RHYME OR REASON
HIDDEN IN THE RUINS
SOMETIMES THE MEANING IS
CONCEALED
SOMETIMES THE MYSTERY’S REVEALED
SOMETIMES RIGHT OUT OF ROCKY GROUND
MIRACLES ARE FOUND
