Matt Nathanson - Miracles lyrics
[Matt Nathanson - Miracles lyrics]
They built a hero, out of expections
And what a hopeless hero was he
Sticks for legs, well he shook
When the wind blew, even slightly
And he welcomed the smiles
Welcomed the applause
And hoped they'd never forgot just
Who they thought he was
They dressed him up in rich mans clothes
And told him he was beautiful
Then they expected miracles
Then they expected miracles
His parents were please, d
They went to all the parties
He was groomed for greatness from
The time he was young
Raised on a diet of television
He was taught to listen, kept on
And he welcomed desire reckless luxury
The world soaked up every drop of drama
And insecurity
They dressed him up in rich mans clothes
And told him he was beautiful
Then they expected miracles
Then they expected miracles
Then one day his admires just quit him
They just packed up their
Things and were gone he stood alone
Their beautiful disatser
Wonderin' where he'd gone wrong
He wanted their smile wanted the applause
No one would look him in the eye now
No one returned his calls
They dressed him up in rich mans clothes
And told him he was beautiful
Then they expected miracles
Then they expected miracles
And what a hopeless hero was he
Sticks for legs, well he shook
When the wind blew, even slightly
And he welcomed the smiles
Welcomed the applause
And hoped they'd never forgot just
Who they thought he was
They dressed him up in rich mans clothes
And told him he was beautiful
Then they expected miracles
Then they expected miracles
His parents were please, d
They went to all the parties
He was groomed for greatness from
The time he was young
Raised on a diet of television
He was taught to listen, kept on
And he welcomed desire reckless luxury
The world soaked up every drop of drama
And insecurity
They dressed him up in rich mans clothes
And told him he was beautiful
Then they expected miracles
Then they expected miracles
Then one day his admires just quit him
They just packed up their
Things and were gone he stood alone
Their beautiful disatser
Wonderin' where he'd gone wrong
He wanted their smile wanted the applause
No one would look him in the eye now
No one returned his calls
They dressed him up in rich mans clothes
And told him he was beautiful
Then they expected miracles
Then they expected miracles
