"Upstairs Room" Lyrics

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
