Three steps down below the city streets
In our private room, the colour all runs out
An not a sound, the smoke curls in the air
An 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 heavens 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
An I know betters gettin harder all the time
From three steps down
From three steps down

Instrumental break

Dead or dancin, cross the room,
The candles burn and shadows loom
I hide below it all,
Or heavens 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 colour all runs out
The colour all runs out
The colour all runs out
The colour all runs out
