[Verse 1]
I was walking through a misty day
The sky was cold and gray
An old man came right up to me
And said, "I know your name"
He said he'd like to talk to me, only for a while
I had no plans, so I said, "Okay"
And he started with a sigh; he said:
"I've seen a million years pass right away
I've seen the gods of yesterday; they're old and gray
If you will fail, there's only one more way"
[Chorus]
What we need right now is a miracle on Earth
Let our hearts cry out, so our voices can be heard
Let us walk away together from the never-ending rain
Till the sun will shine for all of us again
[Verse 2]
He said, all life, he'd been searchin'
For a way to find the clue
That love will turn the fear to hope
Skies of gray to blue
"Let the miracle come true, my friend"
This is what he said
"Let's give ourselves a second chance
For another lap in the race
And then a million stars will shine to light our way
And all the tears from yesterday... forever washed away"
[Chorus]
What we need right now is a miracle on Earth
Let our hearts cry out, so our voices can be heard
Let us walk away together from the never-ending rain
Till the sun will shine for all of us again
[Bridge]
Take my hand and you will see
The mirror of your destiny
So many came to read the signs
To understand their meaning
Now I see I do not dare
But something's calling me
So many men cannot break free
The one who will succeed
I wonder if it's me
[Solo: Kai Hansen]
[Chorus]
What we need right now is a miracle on Earth
Let our hearts cry out, so our voices can be heard
Let us walk away together from the never-ending rain
Till the sun will shine for all of us again
[Chorus 2]
It's a miracle we need
Let hearts unite, so our voices shake the Earth
Let us walk away together from the never-ending rain
Till the sun will shine for all of us again, oh
Yeah, oh...
[Outro]
We need a miracle, a miracle, a miracle on Earth
Let our hearts cry out for the miracle
Let the stars shine on
For the miracle, the miracle on Earth
Yeah, oh... Whoa-oh...
Yeah, yeah...
It's a miracle
Our hearts, our hearts shall unite for the miracle
Yeah... Ooh, ooh, ooh
It's a miracle we need, a miracle we need, yeah...
