marble steps
Singer:bonnie mckee
i climb the marble stairs that lead away
away from everything i used to know
i try to keep my eyes down on the way
a way my mother told me not to go
well all i wanted was a hand to hold me down
to keep the sky from swallowing me up
and all i ever needed was someone to come around
and tell me that i suffered long enough
i wonder when i'll see the stars again
i thought they had faded long ago
with every step im closer to the end
im climbing cause i don't know where to go
well all i ever wanted was a place to store my faith
i thought that i could keep it locked away
it burns my eyes to look at him
and so ive turned my broken face away
i always dreamed of sundays together with you
only your echos can break my heart
i feel i am drifting through _
well all i ever wanted was a hand to hold me down
to keep the sky from swallowing me up
and all i ever needed for someone to come around
and tell me that i've suffered long enough
