You're running the old black stairs
And finally found what's there
I wrote it off on a cold black city night
You don't even know what's there
Until it's all gone and then
I wrote it off on a cold black city night
And there's a lot of love found
When we blind ourselves
In the light
But you want it so high
Spend the night and day
In the sky
And oh
And there's a lot of love that drowns
You're running the old black stairs
And finally found what's there
I wrote it off on a cold black city night
You don't even know what's there
Until it's all gone and then
I wrote it off on a cold black city night
But there's a lot of hope found
By that old lighthouse
In the night
It leads you from your blind ways
To the brightest day
Of your life
And oh
There's a lot of love that drowns
You're running the old black stairs
And finally found what's there
I wrote it off on a cold black city night
You don't even know what's there
Until it's all gone and then
I wrote it off on a cold black city night
Oh city night
Oh when you go out now dream slow
And I won't let go
Tonight let's dream slow
