Spirit of the stairwell

Scratched out a note I wrote for you
to wake and read
to know that I was there once
I knew that there was nothing that I could write to assure you
of my return
But all the paper said when I was done is
Do you still want me?
because I'd be terrified if I had to leave this place today
We haven't saved the baby

As I said
my darling
spring is constantly calling me
and there's no place that I'd rather be

I won't be angry
if you have to leave
but I won't be waiting
for that day
So don't say you're sorry because
I won't believe you

Didn't see a sticker on the door when we walked in
but I know it's going to cost us
the same amount of love it takes to get you through
but it never moves you
I'd be terrified if I had to leave this place today
It's where I threw my love away
Then we saw a different side of Annie nobody saw
She tried to kill the baby

and the earth and its skin will open up
and birth out a perfect mirror
that makes all our reflections clear

I won't be angry
if you have to leave
but I won't be waiting
for that day
So don't say you're sorry because
I won't believe you
