Miracle days

I watched the forces pull you under
I saw the blades that cut you down
And our whole world was torn asunder
You were lost and I was drowned
I never thought I'd hear your voice
I never thought I would see you again
The hands of time, once racing madly
Locked in place and met their end

From the point of no return
You fought the tide and fate was overturned
From the time of journey's end
We can live again
For every single breath you taste
These are the miracle days

With every step you take on earth
A billion atoms crash and scream
And every time your young heart beats
It's another deep fulfillment of a dream
If my final hour was at hand
Would I have said all that I have to say?
Can there ever be a doubt at all
That I should live my life no other way?

But here you stand where no one should be standing
Walk where no footsteps should be
Hold me with your eyes commanding
Laugh when no laugh would come to me
Come to me

From the point of no return
We can grow older with no lessons learned
From the time of journey's end
There's a message coming in
Every moment any place
These are the miracle days

But here you stand where no one should be standing
Walk where no footsteps should be
Hold me with your eyes commanding
Laugh when no laugh would come to me
Come to me

From the point of no return
You fought the tide and fate was overturned
From the time of journey's end
We can live again
For every single breath you taste
These are the miracle days
