Blackstairs

Cold, blue eyes, they look through me



Stare those eyes at me



You must be one of those girls



Who live on the blackstairs



Yes, you must be one of those girls



Who live on the blackstairs



There's no disguise upon your face



You're not like anyone I know



They give so freely and they come when I come out



But you're the one, the one I want to understand



You must be one of those girls



Who live on the blackstairs



Yes, you must be one of those girls



Who live on the blackstairs



You're not scared, no, you don't answer



You just stand there, face the stairs going home



If I could choose my own way down



I'd take the road to the blackstairs



You must be one of those girls



Who live on the blackstairs



Sadness raging in the broken man



Stays until the day ends



When he is free to think of better days again



Looks like the scales of love and time are all the same



You must be one of those girls



Who live on the blackstairs



And I long to go up there



And live on the blackstairs



Yes, you must be one of those girls



Who live on the blackstairs
