I thought I'd found the right guy, but another girl caught his eye

When he turned his back on me, oh I thought I'd die

I'm just a-hanging on; most of my hope is gone

Lonely nights still linger since he slipped through my fingers

Last-minute miracle is all I can hope for



I'm getting hysterical, praying he'll walk through the door

I didn't miss heartache at last, oh heartbreak in my own past

(Last-minute miracle) is all I can hope for (last-minute miracle)



This infatuation can't last in his heart; I'm anticipatin' makin' a new start

If I can't share in his sweet lips, my life will cease to exist

Last-minute miracle is all I can hope for



Giving my love to a stranger, leaving my heart in danger

All hope's fading away; please let him come back to stay

(Last-minute miracle) is all I can hope for

(Last-minute miracle) hey hey hey

(Last-minute miracle) is all I can hope for (last-minute miracle)



I need some love so fast in this confusion, this heart wearing the pain

Never have I been so disillusioned; when I ever love again

Last-minute miracle is all I can hope for



I'm getting hysterical, praying he'll walk through the door

I didn't miss heartache at last, oh heartbreak in my own past

(Last-minute miracle) is all I can hope for

(Last-minute miracle) is all I do

(Last-minute miracle) I'm beggin' you please

(Last-minute miracle) last-minute miracle

...& fade
