INXS - The Stairs lyrics

rate me

In a room above a busy street<br>The echoes of a life<br>The fragments and the accidents<br>Separated by incidents<br>Listened to by the walls<br>We share the same spaces<br>Repeated in the corridors<br>Performing the same movements<br><br>Storey to storey<br>Building to building<br>Street to street<br>We pass each other on the stairs<br><br>Storey to storey<br>Building to building<br>Street to street<br>We pass each other on the stairs<br><br>Listened to by the walls<br>We share the same spaces<br>Repeated in the corridors<br>Performing the same movements<br><br>The nature of your tragedy<br>Is chained around your neck<br>Do you lead or are you led<br>Are u sure that you don't care<br><br>There are reasons here to give your life<br>And follow in your way<br>The passion lives to keep your faith<br>Though all are different all are great<br><br>Climbing as we fall<br>We dare to hold on to our fate<br>And steal away our destiny<br>To catch ourselves with quiet grace<br><br>Storey to storey<br>Building to building<br>Street to street<br>We pass each other on the stairs<br><br>Listened to by the walls<br>We share the same spaces<br>Repeated in the corridors<br>Performing the same movements<br><br>Storey to storey<br>Building to building<br>Street to street<br>We pass each other on the stairs
