I've been livin' 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,
Hey, you come around and,
Hey, you come around and I can't keep time.
Hey, you turn around and,
Hey, you turn around and,
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,
Hey, you come around and,
Hey, you come around and I lose my head.
Hey, you turn around and,
Hey, you turn around and,
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 blockin' out the sun, it seems,
Your a pacifist with a gun, Eileen.
Hey, you come around and,
Hey, you come around and,
Hey, you come around and I can't keep time.
Hey, you turn around and,
Hey, you turn around and,
Hey, you turn around and I'm left behind.
Hey, you come around and,
Hey, you come around and,
Hey, you come around and I lose my head.
Hey, you turn around and,
Hey, you turn around and,
Hey, you turn around and I'm left for dead.
