Three steps down below the city streets In our private room, the color all runs out An' not a sound, the smoke curls in the air And I can feel a sliding peace, come over me tonight Dead or dancin', 'cross the room The candles burn and shadows loom I hide below it all or heaven's underground The clouds are fallin' 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 gettin' harder all the time From three steps down, from three steps down Dead or dancin', 'cross the room The candles burn and shadows loom I hide below it all or heaven's underground The clouds are fallin' 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
