Halfway down the stairs is a stair where I sit

There isn't any other stair quite like it

I'm not at the bottom

I'm not at the top

So this is the stair where I always stop

Halfway up the stairs

Isn't up and isn't down

It isn't in the nursery

It isn't in the town

And all sorts of funny thoughts

They run thorugh my head

It isn't really anywhere

It's somewhere else instead

Halfway down the stairs is a stair where I sit

There isn't any other stair quite like it

I'm not at the bottom

I'm not at the top

So this is the stair where I always stop
