about

Sometimes love is so strong no border can hold you back. Not even the final border.

In my search for footage for a video I stumbled upon the cult classic Carnival of Souls and thought the movie was a perfect fit for this song (or the other way around). Be it from a different perspective, namely that of the woman.
The movie stars Candace Hilligoss and is directed by Herk Harvey and is in the public domain.
You can find the video on YouTube.

lyrics

Oh, as I came home one night
I called out to my love but there was no reply
Scratched on the table I could make out a line
It read: ‘I’ve taken her with me, to make her mine’

Oh, where has she gone
Oh, where is my love
Oh, I will look for her
Below and above

Oh, I went out on a search
But got no help from the law, so I turned to the church
The vicar he told me ‘A lean man dressed in black
said he was looking for your lady and I pointed him to your shack’

Oh, where has she gone
Oh, where is my love
Oh, I will look for her
Below and above

Oh, went back home in a haze
To find her body upstairs. I grazed her cold face
I wrote a note to be found by the ones that I love
‘Gone looking for her, below and above’
