Eileen and I

Eileen and I are cut from the same cloth
Hopeless romantics we two
Oblivious to life's trials and tribulations
It's love that sees us through

Since the world began, it's the driving force
The reason we exist you and I
Thoughts of no longer being able to express
My love brings a tear to my eye

Ask Eileen, she knows what I mean
Her words exude passion and desire
Symbols of what real love is made of
That can set our hearts on fire

What a wonderful place this world would be
If love replaced hate in men's souls
For the first time ever since the beginning of time
We'd be actors in a strange new role

Eileen and I are cut from the same cloth
Hopeless romantics we two

Dedicated to everybody's sweetheart, Eileen Ghali
