Eric Burdon Just The Thought Lyrics

There's a staircase in my living room And it leads to (k)nowhere land There are flowers growing from my wall They lend a touching hand

They are flowers that only I can touch I must turn my back before I rush To their self-destroying beauty That only I can touch I slowly turn, and take a step I feel a change, that I accept Is it a game I will regret

As I play I see me winning And I gain what's called self pride And I turn around with a smiling sigh See a flower that has died I feel a change, another change Another game, I will have learnt
There's a staircase in my living room And it leads to (k)nowhere land There are flowers growing from my wall They need a helping hand I feel a change, another change Another game I will have learnt I slowly turn, and take a step I feel a change, that I'll accept Is it a game, I will regret
