Sam Roberts Band Don't Walk Away Eileen song lyrics

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

Hey! You come around and I

Hey! You come around and I can't keep time

Hey! You turn around and I

Hey! You turn around and I

Hey! You turn around and I'm left behind

Eileen says I'm a boy, not a man

Crying on the corner with my head in my hands

I called her name and she ran

Slipping through my fingers like a fist full of sand

Hey! You come around and I

Hey! You come around and I

Hey! You come around and I lose my head

Hey! You turn around and I

Hey! You turn around and I

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 blocking out the sun it seems

You're a pacifist with a gun, Eileen

Hey! You come around and I

Hey! You come around and I

Hey! You come around and I can't keep time

Hey! You turn around and I

Hey! You turn around and I

Hey! You turn around and I'm left behind

Hey! You come around and I

Hey! You come around and I

Hey! You come around and I lose my head

Hey! You turn around and I

Hey! You turn around and I

Hey! You turn around and I'm left for dead

Don't walk away Eileen!

Don't walk away Eileen!

Don't walk away Eileen!

Don't walk away Eileen!... (repeat)
