Three Flights Down Lyrics

Lately I've found
You're bringing me down
And I can't stand to see me this way
I'll stick around but I won't make a sound
You already know what I'd say

I'd say you want to hit me where it hurts the most
To get me lying down
And uh, I'm on to you
And nothing ever works out like it should

Quiet on the front
The sky dropped the sun
It fell down on our faces again
I tried to run
You could see what I'd done
Now it's wearing off, wearing thin

And now where, out there
You be full of you enough to think I'm waiting up
And uh, I'm on to you
And nothing ever works out like it should

Light in her eyes
Light in her eyes
Light in her eyes
Light in her eyes
Light in her eyes
I'm changing trains
The station remains
Footsteps in the stairwells echo
I lost track of days
I found thousands of ways
But how to quit you nobody knows

So leave me, you're free
It's three flights down to happiness
Be sure you close the door
And uh, I'm on to you
And nothing ever works out like it should

Light in her eyes
Light in her eyes
Light in her eyes
Light in her eyes
Light in her eyes
Light in her eyes

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
