Lyrics

Eileen

[Verse 1]

There are things we cannot see that hang

Within her sight

There are people we won't remember

That dance with her at night

[Chorus]

Eileen is callin' me

To sit awhile and talk to trees

Eileen, can't you see?

The songs you sing are scarin' me

[Post-Chorus]

(Eileen, Eileen)

Ooh-ooh

[Verse 2]

She's romancing with the moon

Full and alone

It's really a street light

It's somethin' we all know

[Chorus]

Eileen is callin' me

To sit awhile and talk to trees

Eileen, can't you see?

The songs you sing are scarin' me

[Post-Chorus]

(Eileen, Eileen)

Eileen

Ooh-ooh

[Bridge]

Ooh-ooh-ooh

Oh

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]

There are things we cannot see that hang

Within her sight

It's really a street light

It's somethin' in her night

[Chorus]

Eileen, she's callin' me

To sit awhile and talk to trees

Eileen, can't you see?

The songs you sing are scarin' me

Eileen is callin' me

To sit awhile and talk to trees

Eileen, oh can't you see?

The songs you sing are scarin' me

[Post-Chorus]

(Eileen, Eileen)

Eileen, Eileen

[Outro]

Uh, hey-hey

(I know what she knows)

(I know what she knows)

I know what she knows

I know what she knows
