The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Miracle" by the artist "Vertical Horizon"

Contents

The song "Miracle" by Vertical Horizon delves into the complex nature of love, desire, and the pursuit of the unattainable. The lyrical protagonist ponders whether it is wrong to expect another person to be their "miracle," the fulfillment of all their desires.

The song opens with a question: is it ethical to consider someone a miracle? Doesn't it devalue a person's individuality, reducing them to an instrument for one's own happiness?

The lines "All you ever really needed was everything you could never be" suggest that we often seek in others what we ourselves lack. We dream of a "miracle" that will fill the void in our lives, instead of looking for happiness within ourselves.

The chorus's image of a "lonely miracle" on the beloved's face emphasizes the fleeting and illusory nature of this feeling. The lyrical protagonist waits, "eyes wide open," but cannot understand whether this miracle is real or just a figment of his imagination.

The phrase "You'll never know what it really is until it's gone" speaks to the fact that we often don't appreciate what we have until we lose it. We only realize the true value of a "miracle" when it disappears from our lives.

The second part of the song delves deeper into the theme of love. The lyrical protagonist wonders: can love be the "miracle" that brings happiness and meaning to life? He sees love as an all-encompassing feeling that permeates everything around, "in everything above and below us."

The repetition of the word "miracle" at the end of the song emphasizes the lyrical hero's obsession with this idea. He still hopes that a "miracle" will come into his life, but the uncertainty of the ending leaves the question open. Will he find what he is looking for, or will he remain captive to his illusions?

It's taken much too long to get it right

Would it be so wrong

To maybe find someone

A miracle

And all you really need

Is everything you could never be

And so you'd give it all

For a miracle

[Chorus:]

Is there a trace inside her face

Of a lonely miracle

And so you wait

And lie awake

For a lonely miracle

You never really know

What it is

Not until it goes

And if it comes again

It's a miracle

But what you miss is love

In everything below and up above

And could she bring it all

A miracle

[Chorus]

All you wanted was a (miracle)

All you needed was a miracle

A miracle

And all you wanted was a (miracle)

All you needed was a miracle

A miracle

It's taken so long to get it right

Could it be so wrong

To maybe find someone

A miracle

[Chorus]
