Top of the Stairs
I'm insisting that you listen
Try to understand
I was wrong without reason
In my demands
Can you ever forgive the way I behaved?
Don't worry about it, baby
I know just how this love can be saved
Take me up to the top of the stairs
We'll get lost in the darkness waiting there
I'm depending on your wisdom to reconsider
Wounded pride held me captive
But I can deliver
You don't have to talk no more
It goes without saying
Then I'm just gonna lock the door
Pretend it was a game we were playing
Take me up to the top of the stairs
We'll get lost in the darkness waiting there
I pretend I'm so busy
As if you didn't know
When I'm out of your arms
There's no place else to go
It's a negative reaction
Now it's clear to us
But from now on
But from now on
We're gonna stick to the feelings we trust
Take me up to the top of the stairs
We'll get lost in the darkness waiting
Take me up to the top of the stairs
We'll get lost in the darkness waiting there
Let's forget all our cares
And climb the stairs
Let's climb the stairs
Take me up to the top of the stairs
We'll get lost in the darkness waiting
Take me up to the top of the stairs
We'll get lost in the darkness waiting there.
Try to understand
I was wrong without reason
In my demands
Can you ever forgive the way I behaved?
Don't worry about it, baby
I know just how this love can be saved
Take me up to the top of the stairs
We'll get lost in the darkness waiting there
I'm depending on your wisdom to reconsider
Wounded pride held me captive
But I can deliver
You don't have to talk no more
It goes without saying
Then I'm just gonna lock the door
Pretend it was a game we were playing
Take me up to the top of the stairs
We'll get lost in the darkness waiting there
I pretend I'm so busy
As if you didn't know
When I'm out of your arms
There's no place else to go
It's a negative reaction
Now it's clear to us
But from now on
But from now on
We're gonna stick to the feelings we trust
Take me up to the top of the stairs
We'll get lost in the darkness waiting
Take me up to the top of the stairs
We'll get lost in the darkness waiting there
Let's forget all our cares
And climb the stairs
Let's climb the stairs
Take me up to the top of the stairs
We'll get lost in the darkness waiting
Take me up to the top of the stairs
We'll get lost in the darkness waiting there.
