Eileen

Dear, you left too soon, went to the next room
If you haunt me, I'll sing for you
How the hinges move, connecting me and you
Is a door way that you're knocking through

We walk down a dock and the water's cold
You want me to escort you
How I'd love to go swim with you in death
But my heavy heart won't let me tread

I must stay on the shore, I am young, my blood's 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 was so easy to be
We were young and naive

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 was so easy to be
We were young and naive

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
