Trash Can Sinatras - It's a Miracle lyrics

gone...it didn't last too long

no lack of trying on our part

as i was saying to the others

it's a miracle we try anything at all

you pour your heart out

knowing full well

it could fail, fail, fail

but how could we know back then?

it's a rare old grail, pricelessly to fail

older sins cast longer shadows

when we watch them fade and die

it's a lovely day in sunlight's golden ray

but that just slips away - isn't it a shame

and it's cold now at night

and i hear your name

calling me back through the days

your a rare old flame, burning bright again

all those things that we shared matter now

i just can't say goodbye

do i have to try?

honey, it's no crime to lose your way

everyone, in their turn, gets to fail

well how could we know back then?

such a rare old grail, (pricelessly) to fail

older sins cast longer shadows

when we watch them fade and die

it's a miracle
