At the Top of the Stairs

by Janis Ian

At the top of the stairs there's darkness
My life is not based on happiness
Just tonight on the water
My life has been sadly taunted
I'll be the sight of darkness
'Cos I can see my shadow of happiness
At the top of the stairs there's darkness
I'm afraid of my shadow of lonliness
At the top of the stairs there's darkness
My life is not based on happiness
Just tonight on the water
My love has been taken from the alter
My life has amazing sorrow
It'll be there today & tomorrow
At the top of the stairs there's darkness
I'm afraid of my shadow of lonliness
At the top of the stairs there's darkness
My life is not based on happiness
Well our love it was nice
I had the best time of my life
At the top of the stairs there's darkness
I'm afraid of my shadow of lonliness
At the top of the stairs there's darkness
My life is not based on happiness (repeat)
