Where They Perform Miracles - Clap Your Hands Say Yeah

What was the answer

To the question we should’ve asked ourselves?

Your eyes spoke of danger at the river’s edge

Where you walked on the water with your tongue out

Born in Philadelphia, but now living in the South

Your hand slips slowly into mine somehow

But who’s gonna argue with a perfect start?

And will you still be there when I’m down and out?

I know a place where they perform miracles

I know a place where they perform miracles

I know a place where they perform miracles

And even if it’s just for a moment then

And even if our thoughts get all tied up again

I wanna be the one who got to know you when

You gave it all away

You had nothing left

Take my hand again, please don’t laugh

Like a daughter says, «But, daddy, am I pretty now?»

And we were so close, we could almost touch the sun

But we burned ourselves out

I know a place where they perform miracles

I know a place where they perform miracles

I know a place where they perform miracles

I know a place where they perform miracles

I know a place where they perform miracles

I know a place where they perform miracles

I know a place where they perform miracles

Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
