One flight down


One flight down
Norah Jones - 2002
"Come away with me"

"In this place, where your arms unfold, here at least you see your ancient face. Now you know"
One flight down
There's a song on low
And your mind
just picked up on the sound
Now you know
you're wrong
Because it drifts like smoke
And it's been there
playing all along
Now you know
Now you know
The reeds and brass have been weaving
Leading into a single note
In this place
Where your arms unfold
Here at least
you see your ancient face
Now you know
Now you know
The cadence rolls in broken
Plays it over and then goes
One flight down
There's a song on low
And it's been there
playing all along
Now you know
Now you know
