[Verse 1]
Ask me no questions, I will tell you no lies
Careful what you wish for
We're looking for angels in the darkest of skies
Saying that we wanted more
I feel like I'm falling, but I'm trying to fly
Where does all the good go?
We're looking for answers in the highest of highs
But will we ever, ever know?
[Chorus 1]
And I need you to know I'm not asking for a miracle
But if love is enough, could you let it show?
If you feel it, could you let me know?
(Oh, oh)
(Oh, oh) If you feel it, could you let me know?
(Oh, oh)
(Oh, oh) I'm not asking for a miracle
[Verse 2]
Ask for forever when the end is in sight
Showing what you want to
We're looking for light inside an ocean of night
But will we ever see it through?
[Chorus 1]
And I need you to know I'm not asking for a miracle
But if love is enough, could you let it show?
If you feel it, could you let me know?
(Oh, oh)
(Oh, oh) If you feel it, could you let me know?
(Oh, oh)
(Oh, oh) I'm not asking for a miracle
[Chorus 2]
Ask me no questions, I will tell you no lies
I'm not asking for a miracle
We're looking for angels in the darkest of skies
I'm not asking for a miracle (I'm not asking for a miracle)
(I'm not asking for a miracle)
[Bridge]
I'm not asking for a miracle
If you feel it, could you let me know?
[Chorus 2]
Ask me no questions, I will tell you no lies
I'm not asking for a miracle
We're looking for angels in the darkest of skies
I'm not asking for a miracle (I'm not asking for a miracle)
Ask me no questions, I will tell you no lies
I'm not asking for a miracle
We're looking for angels in the darkest of skies
I'm not asking for a miracle (I'm not asking for a miracle)
Miracle was written by Lauren Mayberry & Martin Doherty & Iain Cook & Steve Mac.
When speaking to Annie Mac on BBC Radio 1, Mayberry said:
Well, this is the song we produced with Steve Mac and the rest of the record we did ourselves and with Greg Kurstin. But this is one we actually did in London with Steve. It’s the only song made on British soil, I guess.
Doherty added:
It’...
Yes, a video was released on April 24, 2018:
During a Q&A session at the Love Is Dead release party, Lauren Mayberry said:
I felt really bad that this like really nice stunt lady was like, ‘hit me, hit me in the face,’ and I’m like I really don’t want to do that. But then when I was doing it so far past her head, that they were like, ‘no...
I think we were just throwing around a sequence of chords in the studio with Steve Mac, the producer. Pretty quickly hit on this sort of rush of energy, like the build into the explosion in the chorus. We hit on that really, really early. He started to get really excited, and then we all started to...
I don’t think there was anything different in the process from how we normally write. At that point, we were definitely in a groove. In our mind, the album was done and we had taken a short period of time away from the recording process and we went into the session with Steve just as a kind of explo...
Lauren: Well, I suppose the whole album ‘Love is Dead’ has a lot of themes about belief and faith, or lack thereof, and trying to figure out where you fit in things. I kind of feel like the actual use of the word “miracle” is a little tongue-in-cheek. It’s meant to fit in with those, that kind of ae...
