Practicality doesn't int'rest me
Love the life that I lead
I've got a pocketfull of miracles
And with a pocketfull of miracles
One little miracle a day
Is all I need

Troubles more or less bother me, I guess
When the sun doesn't shine
But there's that pocketfull of miracles
And with a pocketful of miracles
The world's a bright and shiny apple 
Thats mine, all mine

I hear sleigh bells ringing
Smack in the middle of May
I go around like theres snow around
I feel so good, its Christmas everyday
Life's a carousel, far as I can tell
And I'm ridin' for free 

So if you're down and out of miracles
I've got a pocketful of miracles
Aand there'll be miracles enough
For you and me

(I hear sleigh bells ringing)
Smack in the middle of May
I go around like theres snow around
(I feel so good its Christmas every day)
Life's a carousel, far as I can tell
And I'm ridin' for free

(I've got a pocketfull of miracles)
But if I had to pick a miracle
My favorite miracle of all
Is you and me
