Three Flights Up - Nanci Griffith

We returned to that five room flat

 

Now it was empty and this the last time

There were blinking pictures

Of how we'd sit and chat

 

Some of them are scattered

Others shattered in my mind

 

It was always three flights up

 

Cathedral bells kept time

 

In the winter a-chattering cold

 

While the building shook like rageweed in the wind

 

Stories from the heat pipes

We were told

 

Now they only leave me

With a half-enchanted grin

 

It was always three flights up

 

Cathedral bells kept time

 

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

 

See it in the flowers

Dying on the window sil

 

I know we must be out by tommorow morning

 

But am I going 'gainst my will

 

It was always three flights up

 

Cathedral bells kept time

 

Bicycles squeezed down alley ways into view

 

Towels warmed down 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

Dying on the window sil

I know we must be out by tommorow morning

 

But am I going 'gainst my will

 

It was always three flights up

 

Cathedral bells kept time

 

It was always three flights up

 

 

Cathedral bells kept time
