A penny for your thoughts now, baby Looks like the weight of the world's on your shoulders now I know you think you're going crazy Just when it seems everything's gonna work itself out They drive you right back down And you said it ain't fair that a man walks When a bird can fly, we have to kick the ground The stars kiss the sky They say that spirits live, a man has to die They promised us truth, now they're giving us lies Gonna take a miracle to save us this time And your savior has just left town Gonna need a miracle 'Cause it's all on the line And I won't let you down (no, I won't let you down) The river of your hope is flooding And I know the dam is busted If you need me, I'll come running I won't let you down, no, no You're looking for salvation You thought that it'd be shining like an angel's light Well, the angels left this nation And salvation caught the last train out tonight He lost one hell of a fight He said: I'm just one man That's all I'll ever be I never can be everything you wanted from me I've got plans so big that any blind man could see I'm standing in the river, now I'm drowning in the sea Gonna take a miracle to save us this time And your savior has just left town Gonna need a miracle 'Cause your heart's on the line And your heartbeat is slowing down (heartbeat slowing) Your feet are grounded still, you're reaching for the sky You can let 'em clip your wings 'Cause I believe that you can fly Well, my eyes have seen the horror Of the coming of the flood I've driven deep the thorny crown Into the soul of someone's son Still I'll look you in the eye 'Cause I've believed in things I've thought And I'll die without regret For the wars I have fought Gonna take a miracle to save you this time And your savior has just left town Gonna need a miracle 'Cause your heart's doing time And your conscience is calling you out (conscience calling you) It ain't all for nothing, life ain't written in the sand I know the tide is coming But it's time we made a stand With a miracle Gonna take a miracle I need a miracle I need a miracle I need a miracle I need a miracle
