I'd really like to believe in miracles

I'd really like to confess my sins

But if I were to believe in miracles

I'd let the outside in



Last night they showed you faces

Of unfamiliar places

But in the mass confusion

Not deafened by illusion



I know - I've seen their faces

I know They leave no traces



I'd really like a brand new motor car

A set of wheels won't get me very far

I could never get the hang of hanging on

I've been here too long



And when the days seem endless

Don't fear to take a stand

Won't need an alibi

Someone to hold your hand



I know - I've seen their faces

I know That they leave no shadows

No shadows (repeat)



Don't be the one to fall

The others seem so shallow

One day you 71 take it all

Don't be the one to cast a shadow



Cast a shadow (repeat)



I could never get the hang of hanging on

I was not that strong

If I ever get the hang of hanging on

I'd be here too long
