Don't walk away Eileen

I've been living for you since the age of seventeen

Don't walk away Eileen

You've been telling lies and now it's time to come clean



Hey! You come around and I can't keep time

Hey! You turn around and I'm left behind



Eileen says I'm a boy not a man

Cryin' on the corner with my head in my hands

I called her name and she ran

Slippin' through my fingers like a fist full of sand

Hey! You come around and I lose my head

Hey! You turn around and I'm left for dead



And she reads my mind when I'm sleeping

And she always arrives when I'm leaving

Yeah she's blocking out the sun it seems

You're a pacifist with a gun Eileen



Hey! You come around and I can't keep time

Hey! You turn around and I'm left behind



Hey! You come around and I lose my head

Hey! You turn around and I'm left for dead
