The Miracle (Of Joey Ramone)
Cupertino, CA
September 9, 2014
Oh, oh-oh-oh...
Oh-oh, oh-oh...
I was chasing down the days of fear
Chasing down a dream before it disappears
Aching to be somewhere near
Your voice was all I heard
I was shaking from a storm in me
Haunted by the spectres that we had to see
Yeah, I wanted to be the melody
Above the noise, above the hurt
I was young
Not dumb
Just wishing to be blinded
By you
Brand new
And we were pilgrims on our way
I woke up at the moment when the miracle occurred
Heard a song that made some sense out of the world
Everything I ever lost, now has been returned
In the most beautiful sound I’d ever heard
Oh-oh-oh-oh...
We got language so we cannot communicate
Religion so I can love and hate
Music so I can exaggerate my pain
So I give it a name
I was young
Not dumb
Just wishing to be blinded
By you
Brand new
And we were pilgrims on our way
I woke up at the moment when the miracle occurred
Heard a song that made some sense out of the world
Everything I ever lost, now has been returned
In the most beautiful sound I’d ever heard
We can hear...hear...
We can hear you
We can hear...hear...you...
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
I woke up at the moment when the miracle occurred
I get so many things I don’t deserve
All the stolen voices will someday be returned
It's the most beautiful sound I’d ever heard
Oh,oh-oh-oh...
Your voices will be heard
Your voices will be heard
For Joey Ramone
The Miracle of Joey Ramone
And The Ramones
(Thank you)
