She came to call And stays most of the fall She takes the ground floor You the one above
The floorboards creaked under your weight Driving her wild she'd yell at the ceiling You thought maybe it was from a hospital she escaped Any scenario was none to appealing
You hoped for more than this Trying so **** hard to appease When you met in the kitchen You'd ask who this strange person is
Something about her had you sweating bullets You reached for a tea towel while the kettle boiled She whimpered and you didn't know what to do She shrieked and you poured the tea
Around the first snow you saw a way out Above her you'd shuffle sounding soft shoe on the wooden floor Using the wash room you'd pull the seat up and snicker inside Leaving hair in the sink water everywhere and a mirror that's streaked
Before too long our cards were played The rooster greeted the morning and her bags were packed You waited at the station to make sure she got on the train You waved a gloved hand the sound of the whistle made you free
