Kim about ‘A Miracle’s Coming’

Kim: Rick and I sat down just prior to recording the album and decided we wanted to experiment writing with some other writers which we haven’t really done an awful lot before, and it actually coincided with an approach from Rick Nowels via MCA, whether we’d be interested in working with him. (…) He came and had a meeting with us and within 14 minutes of actually meeting him in this room we started writing a song and the song was called “A Miracle’s Coming”, that’s one of the tracks we did with him in Los Angeles.

Lyrics

Are you the devil come to carry away my soul
I want to love you but I don’t want to lose control
You’re taking over me with each little move you make
I want to trust you but it could be a big mistake
I know

But the moment you’re here everything’s right
I lose the fear of the shadows in the night
But then the moment you’re gone everything’s wrong
It never felt this strong

Baby hold on
A miracle’s coming
Can you believe it
Take it in and breathe it
Baby hold on
A miracle’s coming
You gotta understand
It’s right here in our hands
I know

I hear the questions when you look into my eyes
You’re scared of rumours, but I tell you they’re only lies
Is this forever, how can either of us be sure
All I can tell you is I never felt this before
Oh no

But the moment you’re here everything’s right
I lose the fear of the shadows in the night
But babe the moment you’re gone
Everything’s wrong
It never felt this strong

Baby hold on
A miracle’s coming
Can you believe it
Take it in and breathe it
Baby hold on
A miracle’s coming
You gotta understand
It’s right here in our hands
I know

Hold on… take it and breathe it

A miracle’s coming
