[verse 1]
She was a runaway teen
when her boyfriend left the city
Pregnant at sixteen
she had no time for self-pity
Working day and night
as a waitress in a bar

 

[verse 2]
It's hard to do things right
but she never blamed God
when the baby cried at night
She was thankful for what she got
And every night she prayed
"I still believe in miracles"

 

[chorus]
and I wonder how
she can make it on her own
but then she smiles and says:
"I'm not alone
He's always with me and you know?
I still believe in miracles"

 

[verse 3]
"Nothing is impossible"
is what the doctors said
"but chances are small,
your baby's health is so bad...
Nothing we can do
You need a miracle"

 

[chorus]
and I wonder how
she never seems to lose her mind
but then she smiles and says:
"I may be deaf or blind,
mute or cripple but you know?
I'll still believe in miracles"

 

[verse 4]
The last time that I saw her,
the same child by her side
She said she met a good guy
This time she got it right
she said: "Life's been good to me
I still believe in miracles"

 

[chorus]
and I don't know how
she made it through the years of pain
But then she smiles and says:
"I can't complain
He's always with me and you know?
I still believe in miracles"

 

"I still believe in miracles"
She just smiles and says
"I may be deaf or blind,
mute or cripple but you know?
I'll still believe in miracles"
