Eileen Songtext

The hinges move;

connecting me and you

is a door way

You're knocking through.



We walk down a dock

and the water is cold,

You want me to

escort you.


How I'd love to go

swim with you in death,

My heavy heart

won't let me tread.



So, love, I must stay

on the shore.

I am young,

my blood warm.

I can take you this far

Now, my love, we must part.



*When blood and youth were warmer

we breathed Summer like the sweet air

we found each other like a mirror.

We were so optimistic,

It so easy to be?

We we're young and naïve.



Can you pull down the dawn?

It's been so dark since you've been gone

and we've been begging for the morning to come.

We were so optimistic,

It so easy to be?

We were young and naïve.



We'll be fine in the morning.

We'll be fine in the morning.

It's getting late so we must sleep.

We'll see you in the morning,

Eileen.
