Here we go, it's called countin' on a miracle
It's a fairytale so tragic, there's no prince to break the spell
I don't believe in magic but for you I will, yeah for you I will
Countin' on miracle, countin' on a miracle
Countin' on a miracle to come through
Countin' on miracle, countin' on a miracle
Countin' on a miracle to come through
There ain't no storybook story, and no never-ending song
Our happily ever after forever come and gone, forever come and gone
Countin' on a miracle, countin' on a miracle
Countin' on miracle to come through
Countin' on a miracle, countin' on a miracle
Countin' on miracle to come through
Sleeping beauty awakes from her dream, with her lover's kiss on her lips
Your kiss's taken from me, now all I have is this, all I have is this
Your kiss, your kiss, your touch, your touch, your hope
Your faith, your strength, your love, your dream, your life
Countin' on a miracle, countin' on a miracle
Countin' on miracle to come through
Countin' on a miracle, countin' on a miracle
Countin' on miracle to come through
I'm runnin' through the forest with the wolf at my heels
My king is lost at midnight when the tower bells peal, when the tower bells peal
We've got no fairytale ending, in God's hands our fate is complete
Your heaven's here in my heart, our love's this dust beneath my feet, this dust beneath my feet
If I'm gonna live
I'll lift my life, darlin' to you
I'll lift my life
Countin' on a miracle, countin' on a miracle
Countin' on miracle to come through
Countin' on a miracle, countin' on a miracle
Countin' on miracle to come through
Countin' on miracle
