lyrics

GOLDEN MILE

I’ll never really change enough to make it all worthwhile
I don’t want to play those games of love, you know it’s not my style
I was always the freewheeling kind. Now I’m falling and I know the signs
(But you’ll just end up the hooked one brother)
I can see it coming by a mile.

You’re more convincing than Scarlett O’Hara on a moonlight mile
I wanna put between us ten Saharas – pick up the phone and dial
Always had an independent mind. Now I’m crawling and I’m out of time
(Don’t go telling us your hard luck stories)
I ain’t gonna cross the danger line

I wanna fly on a supersonic
Look through the peepshows on the Golden Mile
Take a slow boat to Peking, do my own thing
Love ‘em and leave ‘em in my usual style

You’re more convincing than the star performers of stage and screen
Wearing the look that all the nice girls wear on the centre pages of a magazine
You can blow till your dreams run out. I’m only in love when the light goes out
(Don’t go telling us your hard luck stories)
I ain’t gonna cross the danger line

I wanna fly on a supersonic
Look through the peepshows on the Golden Mile, take a
Slow boat to Peking, do my own thing
Love ‘em and leave ‘em in my usual style

I wanna fly on a supersonic
Look through the peepshows on the Golden Mile, take a
Slow boat to Peking, do my own thing
Love ‘em and leave ‘em in my usual style

I wanna fly on a supersonic and wave it bye bye (too high to fly)
I wanna go on a roller coaster and cover the sky (No one ever really changed the world)
I wanna fly on a supersonic. I wanna wave it bye bye (wave it all bye bye)
I wanna go on a roller coaster and cover the sky

(And the time will come you will agree)
Nobody is gonna walk the Golden Mile with me
With me.
