Three Flights Up
Lyricist:Frank Christian
We returned to that five room flat Now it was empty and this the last time There were blinking pictures Of how we'd sit and chat Some of them are scattered Others shattered in my mind
It was always three flights up Cathedral bells kept time
In the winter, a chatterin' cold While the building shook like ragweed in the wind Stories from the heat pipes We were told Now they only leave me With a half enchanted grin
It was always three flights up Cathedral bells kept time
Bicycles squeezed down alley ways into view And towels warmed on oven doors To not freeze Was the only thing to do
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com And I wonder if we kept to the fair warning 'Cause I can see it in the flowers Dyin' on the window sil I know we must be out by tomorrow mornin' But am I goin' against my will?
It was always three flights up Cathedral bells kept time
Bicycles squeezed down alley ways into view And towels warmed on oven doors To not freeze Was the only thing to do
And I wonder if we kept to the fair warning 'Cause I can see it in the flowers Dyin' on the window sil I know we must be out by tomorrow mornin' But am I goin' against my will
It was always three flights up Cathedral bells kept time
It was always three flights up Cathedral bells kept time
