Though you're lying right beside me you're further than the stars,nYou've been jiggling your goods all day to all the passing cars,nI don't need you to forgive me, that's the last thing that I'd askn'Cause the time for miracles is past nnThe summer ended in a rainstorm and the stink of dirty sheets,nNot even my Michelangelo body could keep you off the streetsnAnd though I walk the paths of righteousness it just gets on your nerves,n'Cause the time for miracles is gone nnAnd I know about your boyfriend, I saw him walk you home,nHe wore a barbed wire necktie and tear gas cologne,nOh, you're 45 next birthday but you still got it going on,nThough the time for miracles is gone nnIt's only disappointment keeps me holed up in this room nBut hell, I swam in disappointment inside my mother's womb,nWon't you drive me up the mountain and just let my wheelchair roll,n'Cause the time for miracles is past?
