Story Behind The Song
Like most of my songs, just a little movie in my head.
Song Description
In love from a distance with someone who is in a dark place.
Letting them know that you understand their pain and offering to bring them 'into the light'. It's about taking a chance on love.

Lyrics
Top of the Stairs
Words and Music by Craig Bowers
When that feeling down in your soul is more than you can take
And you're thinking that your heart is beginning to break
And you cry right out loud but nobody cares
Cry to me you'll find a friend at the top of the stairs
When that wolf is prowling around outside your door
And the pain is just too much you can't take anymore
When you're looking for a friend but there's nobody there
Come on up, you'll find love at the top of the stairs
People in a hurry always worry 'bout missing out
But don't you worry baby, I can show you what it's all about
Oh yeah, Just come on up now Babe
And when that sly old devil time has taken his toll
And the water under the bridge is dark, lonely and cold
Don't give up and call it a night, come on up into the light
Take my hand it'll be alright at the top of the stairs
You and me, we'll be free at the top of the stairs
