The Miracle

Lift the wailing wood Hammer the tortured nails Place the ghostly steps Below the battered rails Invite those crazy strangers Dressed in stranger clothes Join the mighty miracle Ready to unfold Building a stairway In the desert Aimed toward the pure and honest sky Building a stairway In the desert Going to rise for miles And miles Leave this evil town Where scorpions share your bed Guilty snakes make a home Deep inside your head The bleeding sun Burns your feet Hangmen joke Beggars weep Buried bodies Cry for help Undertakers Steal your wealth Building a stairway In the desert Aimed toward the pure and honest sky Building a stairway In the desert Going to rise for miles And miles We’re laughing and We’re dancing In the desert Dancing in the desert Of our lives Can’t you see? We’re dancing in the desert Dancing in the desert Of our lives Feel so free Dancing in the desert Dancing in the desert Of our lives Free….so free In the desert Dancing in the desert Of our lives Lift the wailing wood Hammer the tortured nails
