Just blessed & thankful for my family.  Love is a miracle.

MIRACLES HAPPEN

 GOT A LOT OF HOPE AND SOME BIG OLE DREAMS

TWO SWEET GIRLS AND ONE GOOD MAN WHO MEANS THE WORLD TO ME

HE SAYS WE'RE MEANT TO BE

WELL IT DON'T ADD UP, I JUST DON'T GET IT

BUT I BET IT'S GOT A LOT TO DO WITH SOMEONE WHO

SAID A PRAYER OR TWO

CHORUS:

SOMEBODY GETS DOWN ON THEIR KNEES EACH DAY

CAUSE THEY KNOW MIRACLES HAPPEN WHEN WE PRAY

DON'T BE SURPRISED AT WHAT MIGHT COME YOUR WAY

CAUSE I KNOW MIRACLES HAPPEN WHEN WE PRAY

BET YOU KNOW SOMEONE WHO HAS GOT A NEED

THAT CANNOT BE FILLED WITH A WORD OR DEED

BUT THERE IS ONE WHO CAN MAKE IT ALRIGHT AGAIN

SEND A MESSAGE UP, TAKE A LOOK AROUND

AND SEE A SOUL THAT ONCE HAD LOST IT'S HOPE COME SHININ' THROUGH

IT'S JUST A SIMPLE TRUTH

(REPEAT CHORUS TWICE)

 THAT'S WHY I SAY A LITTLE PRAYER FOR YOU EACH DAY

Written with another one of my Mobile songwriting family.  I brought this idea to John Edd.  He wan't blown away by the hook, but when I finished explaining where I wanted to go with it, he came around.  John Edd was The weather man in Mobile for years, and is responsible for my favorite line in the song; "When I'm on the blue side of the rainbow".  A lot of people ask for the song by that line instead of the title.

I CAN WAIT

                                                                    WITH THE CLOUDS AND ALL THE THUNDER

SOMETIMES I CAN'T HELP BUT WONDER

IF THERE WILL EVER BE ANOTHER SUNNY DAY

AT THE END OF MY ROPE

HANGING ON TO WHAT'S LEFT OF HOPE

BUT THE WEATHER'S ALWAYS CHANGIN'

I CAN WAIT                             

         WHEN I'M ON THE BLUE SIDE OF THE RAINBOW

IT CAN BE SO HARD TO SEE THE LIGHT

BUT SOMEWHERE I KNOW THE SUN IS SHININ'

AND ALL THE OTHER COLORS ARE IN SIGHT

 SOMETIMES CALENDERS AND CLOCKS

TEND TO BE MY STUMBLIN' BLOCKS

ONCE AGAIN I COME UP SHORT AND ONE DAY LATE

THEN A SECOND HAND GOES WHIRLIN' BY

BRINGS A HINT OF GOLDEN SKY

SO TIME IS NOT MY ENEMY

I CAN WAIT

WHEN I'M ON THE BLUE SIDE OF THE RAINBOW

IT CAN BE SO HARD TO SEE THE LIGHT

BUT SOMEWHERE I KNOW THE SUN IS SHININ'

AND ALL THE OTHER COLORS ARE IN SIGHT

(MUSICAL HALF VERSE)

TAG:     I CAN WAIT  .... I CAN WAIT...   I CAN WAIT
