Miracle Man Songtext
Never asked me what I wanted
You only asked me why
I never thought that so much trouble
Rested on my reply
I could tell it was a night when I was lonely
That you were the only one who′d talk
I could tell you that I liked your sensitivity
But you know it's the way you walk
Why′d you have to say there's always someone
Who can do it better than I can
But don't you think that I know that walking on water
Won′t make me a miracle man
Baby′s got to have the things she wants
You know she's gotta have the things she loves
She′s got a ten-inch bamboo cigarette holder
And her black patent leather gloves
And I'm doing everything just trying to please her
Even crawling ′round on all fours
Oh, I thought by now that it was gonna be easy
But she still seems to want for more
Why'd you have to say there′s always someone
Who can do it better than I can
Well don't you think that I know that walkin' on water
Won′t make me a miracle man
Never give you a bad reputation
Just because you never been denied
You′re trying to say you've done it all before, babe
You know that you just get tired
Yet everybody loves you so much, girl
I just don′t know how you stand the strain
Oh, I'm the one who′s here tonight
And I don't wanna do it all in vain
Why′d you have to say there's always someone
Who can do it better than I can
Well don't you think that I know that walkin′ on water
Won′t make me a miracle man
Oh yeah
A miracle man
Oh, you've got to find another miracle man, now baby
A miracle man
Ohhh-ohh-oh
A miracle man
I said a miracle man
You need a miracle man
I want a miracle man
Lord, a miracle man
You need a miracle man
A miracle man
Cause I′m a miracle man
You only asked me why
I never thought that so much trouble
Rested on my reply
I could tell it was a night when I was lonely
That you were the only one who′d talk
I could tell you that I liked your sensitivity
But you know it's the way you walk
Why′d you have to say there's always someone
Who can do it better than I can
But don't you think that I know that walking on water
Won′t make me a miracle man
Baby′s got to have the things she wants
You know she's gotta have the things she loves
She′s got a ten-inch bamboo cigarette holder
And her black patent leather gloves
And I'm doing everything just trying to please her
Even crawling ′round on all fours
Oh, I thought by now that it was gonna be easy
But she still seems to want for more
Why'd you have to say there′s always someone
Who can do it better than I can
Well don't you think that I know that walkin' on water
Won′t make me a miracle man
Never give you a bad reputation
Just because you never been denied
You′re trying to say you've done it all before, babe
You know that you just get tired
Yet everybody loves you so much, girl
I just don′t know how you stand the strain

Oh yeah
A miracle man
Oh, you've got to find another miracle man, now baby
A miracle man
Ohhh-ohh-oh
A miracle man
I said a miracle man
You need a miracle man
I want a miracle man
Lord, a miracle man
You need a miracle man
A miracle man
Cause I′m a miracle man
