Eileen's Song Lyrics

You have one wing and I have another
Seeking shelter like sister and brother
Through the winter and through the summer
Like one angel we'll
Fly far away
Hold my hand and we'll make it all right
From this hell that we live in
Cross the road until the light
Comes inside and lives within
It's a long and lonesome ride
When your friends have all gone home
But the roses in your eyes
They pull me in so I don't feel alone
You have one wing and I have another
Seeking shelter like sister and brother
Through the winter and through the summer
Like one angel we'll
Fly far away
Sometimes I just can't help but cry
When I think of what we've become
Like a soldier lost in the night
Forgetting all where he has come from
But the mud will soon become dry
And the sun will rise again
And the shadows in our eyes
Will fade away down to lower plains
Cause' You have one wing and I have another
Seeking shelter like sister and brother
Through the winter and through the summer
Like one angel we'll
Fly far away
You have one wing and I have another
Seeking shelter like sister and brother
Through the winter and through the summer
Like one angel we'll
Fly far away
You have one wing and I have another
Seeking shelter like sister and brother
Through the winter and through the summer
Like one angel we'll
Fly far away
So my friend now this I say
I won't leave you hangin' on
Hold on tight now and don't fly away
Till one angel we have become '

Cover art for Eileen's Song lyrics by Burlap to Cashmere

I came across this song on accident actually cause I was flipping through stations on the AOL Radio and as soon as this song came on, I fell in love with the tone of the song. I know its a christian song so I think there is 2 interpretations that can come out of this. 1 can be viewed as the songwriters praying to god for his guidance because the world we live in can be hell at times. 2. I think he can be writing about a Gf talking about how times are tough right now, but they will get better. I couple i was friends with committed suicide almost romeo and juliet style and this song helped me through alot of tough times I had in dealing with what happened.
