There´s a lady living right above me Pretty as a picture on the wall Once I helped her with a bag of groceries We met a time or two out in the hall
She told me somebody hurt her feelings The hurt that´s in her eyes is plain to see Slowly she´s been wearing out my ceiling Walking the floor over me
Every night I hear her crying Crying over some old memory A little of my heart is down here dying Because she´s walking the floor over me
Back and forth I followed every footstep Counting long enough to fall asleep Had the sweetest dream last night because I dreamt She was walking the floor over me
Every night I hear her crying Crying over some old memory A little of my heart is down here dying Because she´s walking the floor over me That woman is walking the floor over me
