The Comsat Angels

Waiting For A Miracle

The Comsat Angels


Sun sets over domes and spires 
Like a magic circle,
it's over her head and under her tyres 
It's incidental, 
but she only has time for essential dreams 
So she's still waiting 'cause it seems like 
there's nothing in the heart of the beast 
I hear her saying 
What kind of life is this? 
It's in suspension 
What kind of life is this? 
Nothing happens 

It's party time at the top of the hill 
The air is freezing 
and the grass is like wire inbetween the trees 
The room is shaking 
and I wish that I had more faith than this 
I see her dancing, 
and if I could dance would she dance with me? 
But then she might say 
What kind of dance is this? 
It's in suspension 
What kind of dance is this? 
Nothing happens 

Waiting for a miracle 
Oh, but nothing ever happens 
Waiting for a miracle 
Oh, but nothing ever happens 
Waiting for a miracle 
Oh, but nothing ever happens 
Waiting for a miracle 
Oh, but nothing ever happens 
Nothing ever happens 
Nothing ever happens 
Nothing ever happens 
Nothing ever happens
