Lyrics*

From Here to There (Graveyard Song)

from the world news to the funnies
I know when I’ve had enough
from the graveyard to the party
which one holds more life?

you just might be surprised

you might be surprised to find the flowers
growing next to so many lonely, lonely, lovely hearts
you might be surprised to find desire sleeping in the grass
and you just might
lay down and live

from the band of dreams to the break of day
the pillow wears the faces of the dreams you don’t recall
from the morning walk to a new song
many steps are taken
some you can’t even feel

you just might be surprised

you might be surprised to find the flowers
growing next to so many lonely, lonely, lovely hearts
you might be surprised to find desire sleeping in the grass
and you just might
lay down and live

do you know the difference
between Marilyn Monroe and a lady face down in the snow
to the earth there is none

but you and I
we gotta get from here to there

from the graveyard to the party
yeah, big deal (whoopie)

I keep myself amused

cause’ I just might be surprised

surprise
I’m happy
I’m happy
surprise
to find
I’m happy
I’m happy

* This is relatively close approximation of the lyric, but there are a couple of words I'm not sure about.
