Teena Marie - Miracles Need Wings To Fly Lyrics






Ooh... hoo... hoo... hoo... hoo... hoo... yeah...

Last night I saw a shooting star fall from the sky
I thought of you and wished you here
I tried to see your face to free you in your dreams
But miracles need wings to fly

Do you understand a heart that beats for you
A love that knows no one but you
I say a little prayer each night and I try not to cry
'Cause miracles need wings to fly

{Miracles need wings to fly, wings to fly}
Miracles need wings to fly
Miracles need wings to fly
{Miracles need wings to fly, wings to fly}
Miracles need wings to fly

Last night I couldn't sleep, I didn't even try
I called your name so desperately {So desperately}
I tried to kiss your lips, invade your private dreams
But miracles need wings to fly

Do you understand the hurt that has no end
A love that wants to be more than just your friend
I say a little prayer at night and, yes, sometimes I sigh
'Cause miracles need wings to fly

{Miracles need wings to fly, wings to fly}
Miracles need wings to fly
Miracles need wings to fly
{Miracles need wings to fly, wings to fly}
Miracles need wings to fly

Do you understand my heart, understand my pain, listen
Do you understand, my dear, when you play those games
Do you understand my hurt, understand my care
Do you understand my mind, when I'm always there, oh

Miracles need wings to fly
And that's why
I keep my head up to the sky
Miracles need wings to fly
And that's why
Eagles spread their wings to the sky, oh, hey... hey... hey...

Miracles need wings to fly
And that's why
I keep my head up to the sky
Hey... hey... hey... keep your head to the sky (To the sky)

    Teena is rare singer! nobody gonna sing like her! especially a vanilla woman. she crossed over RIO TEENA

  37. �.... W....

    I love and adore Teena Marie beautiful voice when I was a teenager I listen to her music.I still love her and miss her.

  38. D.... M....

    I'd rather listen to Teena Marie on any given day instead of any of today's artists (with the exception of Alicia Keys).  Her voice, the lyrics, the music—all superb.  We miss you!!!!

    D.... M....

    Divine, I would rather listen to Teena  Marie, too. Alicia Keys is good, but I am more of an old school, and  a 70;s, 80's, and early 90's person, and most of todays music does not touch artists like Stephanie Mills, Patrice Rushen, and Angela Bofill.  Phyllis Hyman, Michael Jackson, Gerald Levert, and Aaliyah's passing really hurted me, and especially with Hyman committing suicide, Teena dying of Natural Causes.

    D.... M....

    I'm with u on that girlfriend..the music these days idk about u can't even understand what they are talking about...

    D.... M....

    Divine Miss MM 🙌🙌

    O.... ....

    No one can love me like you do no one could ever touch my HEART LIKE YOU

  64. R.... T....

    Thank you so much for posting this one..I have been waiting for it for so long!! thank you thank you thank you!!!

  65. r.... ....

    Classic songs. Who are the two haters who disliked this. They must be high.

  66. C.... ....

    Been 19 years since I last heard this one, and the sooner I heard it, it felt like Jan. 1992 all over again, and back then I was just as interested in the music of the 1960s and '70s. Today's fans and many of today's "artists" wouldn't give a damn about the music of the '80s and '90s. They have no idea who we have lost and what THEY have lost. These days, more and more, each diamond we lose is being replaced by cubic zirconia. And that is sad. Even Teena knew this.

  67. S.... ....

    Man, I wish they had played this track during the WDAS tribute in Philly, always one of my faves. I still can't believe Lady T. is no longer with us, truly one of the best balladeers of all time. Rest well, Vanilla Child.

  68. J.... ....

    My heart is heavy right now. Another one gone too soon.
    R.I.P Teena Marie, we love & miss you.

  69. l.... ....

    @edb24 Okay, gotcha.

  90. G.... C....

  91. S.... P....

    Hey yall should listen to Linda Jones version of "not on the outside" by the Moments. You can hear some of Teena's style in there. If you are a teena Marie fan you would check it out and be amazed

  92. a.... ....

    I love this song, makes me cry everytime I hear it...LOVE YOU, TEE

  93. H.... ....

    The intro reminds me of Dear Lover and I love this song! It sounds like funeral music.

  94. T.... I....

    No argument here. She's at the top of my list and everyone else is a very distant second....

  95. T.... I....

    Couldn't agree more. Teena sings some of the most beautiful, well writen songs I've ever heard.

  96. C.... D....

    Lady T is the best! She has so much soul in her songs. Keep doing your thang,girl.

  97. h.... ....

    white chocolate! 1 of the greatest singer/songwriters in my lifetime

  98. F.... ....

    I love this album! It should have gone multi-platinum and was easily the best album of the year! This album is a perfect masterpiece that the American public is not aware of , due to lack of media exposure and promotion. Almost 20 years later, I still play the songs from this album.

  99. P.... B....

    this always reminds me of the time i wished on a shooting star, but it didn't come true x

  100. K.... G....

    Teena Marie has such a beautiful voice. You can feel the emotions coming out of her vocals....True Talent.
