From Her To Eternity

Ah wanna tell ya 'bout a girlYou kno, she lives in Apt. 29Why... that's the one right up top a mineAh start to cry, Ah start to cryO ah hear her walkinWalkin barefoot cross the floor-boardsAll thru this lonesome nightAnd ah hear her crying too.Hot-tears come splashin on downLeaking thru the cracks,Down upon my face, ah catch'em in my mouth!Walk'n'cry Walk'n'cry-y!!!From her to eternity!From her to eternity!From her to eternity!Ah read her diary on her sheetsScrutinizin every lil piece of dirtTore out a page'n'stufft it inside my shirtFled outa the window,And shinning it down the vineOuta her night-mare, and back into mineMine! O Mine!From her to eternity!From her to eternity!From her to eternity!Cry! Cry! CRY!She's wearing them bloo-stockens, ah bet!and standin like this with my ear to the ceilingListen ah kno it must sound absurdbut ah can hear the most melancholy soundah ever heard!Walk'n'cry! Kneel'n'cry-y!From her to eternity!From her to eternity!O tell me why? Why? Why?Why the ceiling still shakes?Why the fixtures turn to serpants snakes?This desire to possess her is a woundand its naggin at me like a shrewbut, ah kno, that to possess herIs, therefore, not to desire her.O o o then ya kno, that lil girl would just have to go!Go! Go-o-o! From her to eternity!
