Upstairs Room Lyrics - Halfwayhome

There's a young woman in an upstairs room 

in a little town where rain falls and flowers bloom 

and there's a old boy in a living room chair 

he's got a dream and a plan that's gunna take him there 

he smiles at the past then he grits his teeth 

he clenches his fist tightly and swears "no defeat"/ 

then he turns on the music to the tune/ 

of the lady he remembers in an upstairs room 

The upstairs room- lit up in candlelight 

when the storm blew-we both lost our sight 

And I lost my love in an upstairs room 

There's an empty space where her love 

used to be 

he says"it's water under the bridge 

that takes its toll on me" 

its been a long time/ 

it ended much too soon 

still he remembers the promise in an upstairs room 

(Chorus) 

One things for certain it can never be the same 

Her voice and image still pounding in his brain 

And his heart afraid to open up another wound 

forgives the lies spoken in passion 

in an upstairs room
