[Verse 1]
A tree it grows in Brooklyn
The force it grows in me
I’m cracking up the concrete
Of a life that nearly killed me
A woman’s just a man away
From welfare so they say
And Lord I know it to be true
When you’re married by the state
[Chorus]
Yes I’m waiting on a miracle
Yes I’m waiting for the sun to shine in
Waiting on a miracle
Yes I’m waiting for the sun to shine in
[Verse 2]
No restraining order
What a fool was she
A trusting small-town innocent
In love with mystery
You can take the boy from the ghetto
But the ghetto from the boy?
I guess he won his fool’s gold from
Another woman’s life
A tree it grows in Brooklyn
The force it grows in me
I’m cracking up the concrete
Of a life that nearly killed me
A woman’s just a man away
From welfare so they say
And Lord I know it to be true
When you’re married by the state
[Chorus]
Yes I’m waiting on a miracle
Yes I’m waiting for the sun to shine in
Waiting on a miracle
Yes I’m waiting for the sun to shine in
[Verse 2]
No restraining order
What a fool was she
A trusting small-town innocent
In love with mystery
You can take the boy from the ghetto
But the ghetto from the boy?
I guess he won his fool’s gold from
Another woman’s life
