| Lyrics |
Ah wanna tell ya 'bout a girl
You kno, she lives in Apt. 29
Why... that's the one right up top a mine
Ah start to cry, Ah start to cry
O ah hear her walkin
Walkin barefoot cross the floor-boards
All thru this lonesome night
And ah hear her crying too.
Hot-tears come splashin on down
Leaking 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 sheets
Scrutinizin every lil piece of dirt
Tore out a page'n'stufft it inside my shirt
Fled outa the window,
And shinning it down the vine
Outa her night-mare, and back into mine
Mine! 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 ceiling
Listen 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 her
Is, 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!
