Miracle Worker

bed of cotton and lace
 Hair down to her little waist
 She waits for the sun to go down
 Her visitors leave back to their
 Town of pain and grief they'd
 Laid their hands on her gown
 And prayed for a miracle
 The girl works miracles

 room of things she's never seen
 Surrounds her while she sleeps and
 Reminds us of the child inside

 body that's been
 Barely alive for years
 And the people, they can't stop their tears

 As they pray for a miracle
 The girl works miracles
 "We heard she works miracles"

 Her mother shows for all to see
 Statues cry, walls bleed
 The desperate ones line up each day

 Hoping she will take
 Their pain away
 One touch of her hand is all they crave

 And hope for a miracle
 The girl works miracles
 "We heard she works miracles"
 The girl works miracles
 The girl works miracles
