three steps down below the city streets in our private room the color all runs out and not a sound the smoke grows in the air and i can feel a sliding peace come over me tonight dead are dancing across the room the candles burn and shadows loom i hide below it all on heaven s underground the clouds are falling at our feet three steps down below the street so comin down it s like water after wine oh comin down a long hard line and i know better s getting harder all the time from three steps down from three steps down dead are dancing across the room the candles burn and shadows loom i hide below it all on heaven s underground the clouds are falling at our feet three steps down below the street three steps down below the city streets in our private room the color all runs out the color all runs out the color all runs out the color all runs out
