Three Flights Up Lyrics
Three Flights Up by Nanci Griffith
Now it was empty and this the last time
Ther were blinking pictures
Of how we'd sit and chat
Some of them are scattered
Others shattered in my mind
Chorus:
It was always three flights up
Cathedral bells kept time
In the winter, a-chatterin' cold
While the building shook like rageweed in the wind
Stories from the heat pipes
We were told
But now they only leave me
With a half-enchanted grin
Chorus
Bridge:
Bicycles squeezed down alley ways into view
And towels warmed on oven doors
To not freeze
Was the only thing to do
I wonder if we kept to the fair warning
'Cause I can see it in the flowers
Dyin' on the window sil
I know we must be out by tommorow mornin'
But am I goin' 'gainst my will
Chorus
Bridge
Repeat last verse
Chorus
