Marc Cohn
Three Steps Down
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
