Star Mile

Old doubt and a girl by your side She's feeding your pride As you go for a ride Down the star mile Worlds rise as she lets you come in A duo begins To the Hollywood din Of the lonely And all the gold dust in her eyes Won't reform into a ring You had and lost The one thing You kept in a safe place Remember the face The girl who had made you her own And how you left her alone All's well at the base of the hill You might need to fill A prescription to kill Off the sirens Look down from your tower on high And take in the night Look her right in the eye She'll listen And all the gold dust in her eyes Won't reform into a ring You had and lost The one thing You kept in a safe place Remember the face The girl who had made you her own And how you left her alone Life comes to those that'll choose The regular news Over playing the blues With the light on And if you burn the road that'll lead you Back to her in time I'll watch you turn to stone Can't find the sublime She's moving on Without you The tide breaks You watch the stars fake They gather you back to their home I guess it's better than being alone
