Lyrics:
...Looking for Violet's eyes
...Looking for Violet's eyes
No cream pie
No little red riding
No violets
On this colorless, colorless day
...Looking for Violet's eyes
Your heart they say
Never started beating
And silly I'm
still sillily talking to her
Talking to her
Miracle, Miracle
She's run from all the churches in her favorite dress
Hey, hey, hey
Cry Miracle, Miracle
Could have used one today
No Miracle, Miracle
God I hope she's not gone far
'cause boys not many DJs can make you a star
Hey, hey, hey
...Looking for Violet's eyes
...Looking for Violet's eyes
Looked in garbage bins
And even in the playgrounds
The medicine men say you're trapped between the worlds
Trapped between the worlds now
Miracle, Miracle
She's vanished from the churches in her favorite dress
Hey, hey, hey
Call Miracle, Miracle
Could have used one today
No Miracle, Miracle
God I hope she's not gone far
'cause boys not many DJs can make, make, make you a star
Hey, hey, hey...
...Looking for Violet's Eyes
...Looking for Violet's Eyes
...Looking for Violet's Eyes
Could have used one today
Looking for Violet's Eyes
