From Her To Eternity (der Himmel Version) Lyrics

From Her To Eternity (der Himmel Version) lyrics

Ah wanna tell ya 'bout a girl

You know, she lives in room 29

Why... 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

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!

Ah catch'em in my mouth!

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 bit 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 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!



O tell me why? O tell me why?

Oh Why? Why? Why?

O tell me why and don't tell me a lie!

Why the ceiling still shakes? Shakes! Shakes! Shakes!

Why the fixtures turn to serpents and snakes?



This desire to possess her is a wound

and its naggin at me like a shrew

but, Ah know, that to possess her

Is, therefore, not to desire her.



O o o then ya know, that lil girl would just have to go!

Go! Go-o-o! From her to eternity!



From her to eternity
