Song Lyrics
Started out like it always starts
Try to hold the hunger back
You don't anticipate a broken heart
Can't see nothing but the track.
A diamond earring in a bowery bed
You kicked your shoes across the floor
You regret the things that went unsaid
Or have you heard it all before?
Eileen, you should've seen this coming sooner
Do I mean to be alone for all my days?
Eileen, you thought the truth was just a rumor
But that's your way.
It ended like it always ends
Somebody crying on the phone
You tell each other you can still be friends
You both know you're on your own.
My own behavior was a shock to me
I never thought I'd have the nerve
I hope you're sleeping through the night, eileen
I hope they're grading on the curve.
Eileen, you should've seen this coming sooner
Do I mean to be alone for all my days?
Eileen, you thought the truth was just a rumor
But that's your way
That's your way.
Somebody broke my heart once
And I was useless for a week
I didn't leave my apartment
I didn't eat, I didn't speak
But then I found the letter she wrote
Against the wall behind the bed
It said, 'forever is a dead man's joke'
And that's the only thing it said.
Eileen, you should've seen this coming sooner
Do I mean to be alone for all my days?
Eileen, you thought the truth was just a rumor
But that's your way
That's your way.
