Minor alteration - as per sheet music
At the top of the stairs, there's darkness
My life is not based on happiness,
Just a life unwanted
My life has been sadly taunted,
I fear the sight of darkness,
'Cause I can see your shadow of happiness.
At the top of the stairs, there's darkness
I'm afraid of that shade of loneliness
At the top of the stairs, there's darkness
My life is not based on happiness,
Just a life on the border,
My love has been taken from that order,
My life has been arranged with sorrow,
I'm be-cloud-ed by today and tomorrow;
At the top of the stairs, there's darkness
I'm afraid of that shade of loneliness
At the top of the stairs, there's darkness
My life is not based on happiness,
When I had love, it was nice,
How could I base my entire life?
At the top of the stairs, there's darkness,
I'm afraid of that shade of loneliness
At the top of the stairs, there's darkness
My life is not based on happiness,
