Samra (Azerbaijan): 'Miracle'

Writers: A.Aly, J.Erixson, H.Wikström

This is not Samra’s first foray into the world of Eurovision. In 2012 aged 16 she took part in the Azeri national selection. No stranger to singing competitions, since then she has reached the finals of The Voice in both Turkey and Azerbaijan.

Miracle has powerful groove and catchy chorus and I hope you'll sing it along with me
Samra

Now Samara is concentrating all her efforts on Eurovision 2016 with her song, ‘Miracle’, which despite its fairytale-like title is actually about a dramatic breakup.

"I've been through the similar experience once," explains Samra. "It’s never easy to let someone go but you have to stay strong and keep moving."

Lyrics - 'Miracle'

You got in my head, boy, like a song
That I kept on singing, all along
But the radio stopped to play us long ago, long ago

Guess I've had enough, boy, guess I'm done
Like a burning fire, now it's gone
Thought I saw myself in you I made a mistake,
there’s nothing to say
I'm walking away

Gonna take a miracle, oh-oh
Gonna take a miracle to heal this love
Baby I won't stay another night
This time I say goodbye, I'm letting you go

Gonna take a miracle, oh-oh

It was a one way road for you and I
Yeah, we built this castle based on lies
And now we have hit the point of no return
We crash and we burn, you live and you learn

Gonna take a miracle, oh-oh
Gonna take a miracle to heal this love
Baby I won't stay another night
This time I say goodbye, I'm letting you go

Gonna take a miracle, oh-oh
Gonna take a miracle to save us now
And I won't pretend to be alright
my heart is on the line, our end is my start

Gonna take a miracle, oh-oh
Gonna take a miracle to save us now

Gonna take a miracle, oh-oh
Gonna take a miracle to save us now
