From Her To Eternity |
Ah wanna tell ya 'bout a girl |
You kno, she lives in Am. |
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 absurd |
But ah can hear the most melancholy sound |
Ah 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 wound |
And its naggin at me like a shrew |
But, 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! |
