There's a on in apartment 309 There's a on in apartment 309
Sometimes things just add up Don't to have no reason or rhyme Laying in my bed, at the city lights, my mind back in time
Six months ago, she first moved in Smiles in the spoke the loneliness we shared Day by day, the between us grew and grew, till the night she lay in my arms the whole night
But something stayed between us, a thing never had a name It put a fear in her eye, and an unrelenting
I'd ask what was wrong, she'd just smile and turn But the shudder I could feel told me what she couldn't say There's no hope in the multitudes, you're the only one who can the constant shadow and be a stranger to the sun
There's a light on in 309 There's a light on in 309
Her own demons, they her to the very of the world A refugee midnight, my sweet girl
Beautiful lady, with a grip on her soul In six months time, I watched her child's grow old Till she stood at her window with a plea in her eye, then she up at the moonlight, and she leaped to the sky
309's been vacant three now a padlock on the door But sometimes, late at overhead, I hear on the floor
When I close my eyes, I her whispering my name I tell myself it's nothing, just my mind playing be imagination, just a dream and nothing more But then I stare at the crack in my ceiling that pokes up her floor
So why's there a light on in 309? Can't shake this feeling, something got behind
getting louder, now her door creaks wide And now on my door a for whoever inside And for me
for me
