Bagatelle - A Few Steps Away lyrics
[Bagatelle - A Few Steps Away lyrics]
Tommy used to live on the second floor
I guess he doesn't live there, anymore
Mary used to live in the room downstairs
And no one ever saw her behind that door
And everyday
They'd pass each other in the hall
And every night
They'd sit alone behind that wall
And love was just a few steps away
Came a day, one afternoon tommy met Mary
She was leaving her room
They walked together through the summer heat
And said goodbye at the end of the street
And all that night he lay awake in bed
Thought of the girl that he just met
And down below she lay awake, too
Neither of them knowing just what to do
And love was just a few steps away
And isn't it strange?
Two people never knowing
That the other is there and isn't it life?
So near and yet so far
And almost at your door but isn't it sad?
When the one that you want
Is almost at your door but, you
You never know
They fell in love, but who can say
What might have happened on another day
Tommy didn't want to push too fast
And Mary didn't know if this love could last
And everyday
They'd pass each other in the hall
And every night
They'd sit alone behind that wall
And love was just a few steps away
Just a few steps away oh, love
Just a few steps away a few steps away
A few steps away ohh
I guess he doesn't live there, anymore
Mary used to live in the room downstairs
And no one ever saw her behind that door
And everyday
They'd pass each other in the hall
And every night
They'd sit alone behind that wall
And love was just a few steps away
Came a day, one afternoon tommy met Mary
She was leaving her room
They walked together through the summer heat
And said goodbye at the end of the street
And all that night he lay awake in bed
Thought of the girl that he just met
And down below she lay awake, too
Neither of them knowing just what to do
And love was just a few steps away
And isn't it strange?
Two people never knowing
That the other is there and isn't it life?
So near and yet so far
And almost at your door but isn't it sad?
When the one that you want
Is almost at your door but, you
You never know
They fell in love, but who can say
What might have happened on another day
Tommy didn't want to push too fast
And Mary didn't know if this love could last
And everyday
They'd pass each other in the hall
And every night
They'd sit alone behind that wall
And love was just a few steps away
Just a few steps away oh, love
Just a few steps away a few steps away
A few steps away ohh
