Tell Me

Nothing but a miracle will bring you back to me now.
You said that,
I said I'll change, But I don't know how.

My life is at a crossroads,
Trying to stay straight,
Keep my focus now.

Bending round this corner,
Searching for your love,
I longer,
...Forever...

When my heart calls to you,
Do you hear it calling?
...Tell me?

All the things I did, I'm sorry
...forever,  Tell me?  

That you'll take me back,
I've changed my ways,
For now and forever.

Tell me,
Cause I can't stand to lose,
All you had to offer,

And when I find a miracle,
I'll send it to you in an instant now,
The angels will deliver,
I hope your heart can open somehow?

And when I feel the rain is gone,
The crimson light will shine on me for now,
So take me back, I beg, I ask?
Bring me back to life somehow.

So tell me...
That you'll take me back,
I'll love you now and forever,

And tell me...
You'll forgive my past,
And we'll move onward together.

So tell me...
Please come back to me,
I hope these words are yours forever.

Please tell me...?

When finally that magic fell,
A sparkling dust held over us together,
Uniting us as the one,
My dreams came true,
You came back too.

I will never let you down,
Never again, it's my promise now,

I hope I am the miracle,
You're searching for,
I'm searching too.

So tell me...
That we'll always be together,
Grey and old.

And tell me...
If my heart tires,
Or my love gets too cold.

So tell me...
This chance you took was yours,
Forever so bold.

So tell me,
I'll be yours forever,
To claim and to hold,

...nothing but a miracle...
