Seventh Stair Lyrics - Singles - Von Ra

Emily sits on the seventh stair 

Just outside the lions' lair 

Holding the magic in her bowl 

She feels complete, it makes her whole 

She takes the hand of a passing boy 

Who treats her like a battered toy 

She doesn't know, she doesn't care 

She breathes the magic in the air 

And how do you tell her it isn't real? 

How do you say it's a short end deal? 

How do you save a passing glance? 

And how do you give her another chance? 

It's a hard won fight to keep her here 

Where reality is crystal clear 

She says she loves you, she slips away 

She says she'll find you some other day 

She'll make you feel like she wants to go 

But she says it isn't true you know 

She says the hazes are her home 

She'll show you where she wants to roam 

(Chorus) 

She's beautiful and she's very sweet 

But the magic smoke is who she'll meet 

So the letters you write, you'll never send 

Her daytime nightmare never ends 

You're watching it pull her to the top 

You're waiting for the shoe to drop 

She says she loves you but she won't stay 

She says it's her life anyway 

(Chorus)
