Miracle
Blank & Jones With Bernard Sumner Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It was early morning
And I didn't feel great
But the sun was shining
At a quarter to eight
So I got up very slowly
And there by the door
Stood an angel, holy,
I fell to the floor

Am I right?
Is she near me?
Tell me what it takes to hear me
I can't cry anymore
You're my miracle cure

And then one day later
I started to shave
But in the mirror met a stranger
Who I did not know
And he asked me to go with him
I wait from the line
But I knew I couldn't give in
So I started to fight

Am I right?
Is she near me?
Tell me what it takes to hear me
I can't cry anymore
You're my miracle cure (x2)

What can I do?
Where can I hide?
Who can I back?
Who's gonna lie?
Who can I trust?
Who's gonna try?
Who's gonna stay with me tonight?
Who's gonna stay in by my side and when I'm feeling paranoid?
Who's gonna fill this empty void?

Am I right?
Is she near me?
Tell me what it takes to hear my story




Don't cry anymore 'cause it's you that I adore
I said don't cry anymore 'cause it's you that holds the cure

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Blank & Jones's song "Miracle Cure" featuring Bernard Sumner reflect someone's desperate search for a miracle that will heal their emotional pain. At first, the singer wakes up feeling miserable, but as he steps outside, an angel appears before him, giving him hope and comfort. The lyrics evoke the notion that love can be a miracle cure for one's emotional suffering. However, the singer is still grappling with his emotional turmoil, and when he looks at himself in the mirror, he sees a stranger, someone he does not recognize. The stranger represents the singer's emotional confusion, and with his questions, he provokes the singer to ask for help, to fight against his fears, and to seek stability in his life.


The singer's distress carries on through the song, yet he keeps holding on to the hope that the angel and the love he found can be his miracle cure. The last verse expresses his utmost vulnerability and dependence on his lover's support, hoping that she will be by his side and help him fill the void he experiences. The song is a beautiful reflection of someone's search for healing in a time of emotional crisis.
