From her to Elternity

Nick Cave and the bad seeds

Ah wanna tell ya 'bout a girl
 You know, she lives in Room 29
 Why that's the one right up top a mine
 Ah start to cry, ah start to cry-y
 O ah hear her walkin'
 Walkin' barefoot cross the floorboards
 All through this lonesome night
 And ah hear her crying too
 Hot tears come splashin' down
 Leakin' through 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' ev'ry li'l piece of dirt.
 Tore out a page 'n' stufft it inside my shirt.
 Fled outta the window
 And shinning it down the vine
 Outta her nightmare and back into mine.
 Mine! O mine!
 From her to eternity
 From her to eternity
 From her to eternity
 Cry! Cry! Cry!
 She's wearin' them bloo-stockens, ah bet!
 And standin' like this with my ear to the ceiling
 Listen, ah know 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.
