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(chorus)
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 (chorus)
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
