Miracle Mile

Icehouse

Between the neon and the dawn 
Was Saturday night 
The spell is broken, crowd has gone 
Left out on the street 
But who is going to be the one 
To put the pieces back again 
And who is there to see the faces 
Of the ones they left behind 

Heaven is a long, long way from here 
On the miracle mile 
They bury their crosses on the hill 
On the miracle mile 

With her back against the wall 
And the room turning around 
She does the deal and feels no pain 
And never comes down 
But who is going to be the one 
To put the pieces back again 
And who is there to see the faces 
Of the ones they left behind 

Heaven is a long, long way from here 
On the miracle mile
They make their way, they stand or fall 
On the miracle mile
There is only one way out of here 
On the miracle mile
They bury their crosses on the hill 
On the miracle mile

But tonight the lights are shining down 
And no-one knows the way it feels 
Oh, yeah, when tomorrow is so far away 
Dream on and on yeah you'd better dream on 
Heaven is a long, long way from here 
On the miracle mile
They make their way, they stand or fall 
On the miracle mile
There is only one way out of here 
On the miracle mile
They bury their crosses on the hill 
On the miracle mile
