lyrics

Standing around waiting for a miracle
Well I think you've got a while to wait
You're piling too many things on your table
And thinking you're onto something great well

Don't look now, life's got something comin' for ya
Don't slow down, keep yourself from going under

Time ticks away...

I don't know why you stand around
Don't you know without a doubt
That Heaven's gonna strike you down
You know your time is running out

It's gonna strike you down
Oh oh oh oh

Sitting around, still waiting for your miracle
Well, I think you've wasted too much time
Your finding everything falling down around you
But tell yourself that everything's fine

Well, it's all the same as far as you're concerned though
'Cause you do what you want and no one can tell you no

It gets you in the end...

I don't know why you stand around
Don't you know without a doubt
That Heaven's gonna strike you down
You know your time is running out

It's gonna strike you down
Oh oh oh oh

And if you stop to think
You might be on the brink
Of something like a revelation
Or maybe just an idea

Stop wasting all your time, it's not coming back you know
Makes me wonder if you'll ever see the signs

I don't know why you stand around
Don't you know without a doubt
That Heaven's gonna strike you down
You know your time is running out

I don't know why you stand around
Don't you know without a doubt
That Heaven's gonna strike you down
You know your time is running out

It's gonna strike you down, down, down
Oh oh oh oh

It's gonna strike you down, down, down, down, down
Oh oh oh oh
