Three Flights Up Lyrics - Artist : Griffith, Nanci
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 But 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 And I wonder if we kept to the fair warning 'Cause I can see it in the flowers Dyin' on the windowsill I know we must be out by tomorrow mornin' But am I going 'gainst 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 windowsill I know we must be out by tomorrow mornin' But am I going 'gainst my will It was always three flights up Cathedral bells kept time |
