One Small Miracle
Yearning for Redemption: A Plea for One Small Miracle
Lyrics
She's standing at the front door
Describing the woman standing at the front door with a suitcase.
With a suitcase in her hand
Highlighting the woman's intention to leave, holding a suitcase.
I'm staring down the hallway
Expressing the singer's shocked and immobile state in response.
Frozen where I stand
Conveying the singer's emotional paralysis in that moment.
She says she doesn't love me anymore
Revealing the woman's statement that she no longer loves the singer.
Oh Lord what can I do?
Expressing the singer's desperation and seeking divine intervention.
It's gonna take a miracle to make us stay
Acknowledging the need for a miracle to salvage the relationship.
That's why I'm asking you
Explicitly requesting a miracle from a higher power.
So please don't you have a miracle just laying around
Pleading for a miracle, emphasizing urgency and scarcity.
One small miracle nobody needs
Describing the desired miracle as small and seemingly insignificant.
Send it on down
Asking for the miracle to be sent down to address the relationship crisis.
I'll never make it through this night
Expressing the singer's emotional struggle and doubt about enduring the night.
Thinking she's with someone else
Fearing the possibility of the woman being with someone else.
Please don't you have just one small miracle left
Reiterating the plea for a small miracle to prevent the relationship from ending.
I know I haven't been a saint
Admitting personal flaws and shortcomings, not claiming perfection.
And asking you for anything takes nerve
Acknowledging the audacity of asking for a miracle considering past blessings.
'Cause you've already blessed me with so much more in life than I deserve
Expressing gratitude for the blessings received despite personal imperfections.
But if you can make a blind man see
Referencing biblical miracles, emphasizing the power of divine intervention.
And change the water into wine
Highlighting the miraculous acts as evidence of divine capabilities.
Then surely you can keep her from tearing out this ol' heart of mine
Asserting the belief that a miracle can prevent the woman from causing emotional pain.
Please don't you have just one small miracle left
Final plea for a small miracle, emphasizing the desperation in the situation.
