Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Promised you a miracle
Belief is a beauty thing
Promises, promises
As golden days break wondering
Change
[Verse 2]
As love takes a train
Summer breeze and brilliant light
Only love she sees, he controls her love
Love sails to a new life
[Chorus]
Promised you a miracle
Belief is a beauty thing
Promises, promises
As golden days break wondering
[Verse 3]
Only love she sees, he controls her love
Life mirrors a cure, everything is possible
Promises, everything is possible
No
[Chorus]
I promised you a miracle
Belief is a beauty thing
Promises, promises
As golden days break wondering
Change
[Verse 4]
Reflects on them awhile
Love screams so quietly
Slipping back on golden times
Breathing with sweet memories
[Chorus]
Promised you a miracle
Oh, belief is a beauty thing
Promises, promises
As golden days break wondering
[Bridge]
Only love she sees, he controls her love
Life mirrors a cure, everything is possible
In the game of life, everything is possible
No
[Verse 5]
Chance, lost pearls of great price
Take care of family
All he asks for love, love waits for fame
In chance, in chance they'll see
[Chorus]
I promised you a miracle
Oh, belief is a beauty thing
Promises, promises
As golden days break wondering
[Outro]
Too late
Oh-oh
Ooh, aye
She sees, he controls her love
Life mirrors a cure, everything is possible
In the game of life, a burning dream
You can be queen, everything is possible
Love screams
Ah
Promises
She slips
He controls her love
Needs a push
In the game of life
Everything is possible
And changin'
Yeah
Everything is possible
Whoa
