Eyleen - the day's been tiring
I hope she won't weep
Gently she shall sleep
Eyleen - inside a childs dream
Lying alone there
Her dreams she won't share
Along her way
Pure water flows
Slowly time goes
That's where the children play
Day after day
She's wandering 'round
Her mothers ground
That's where I long to stay
Eyleen - the day's been tiring
Make sure she won't weep
Now falling asleep
Eyleen - inside a childs dream
Lying in Gods hand
Far flown to this land
All her love's found
The castaway
The old and grey
They come from miles around
And so I'll go
My lonely way
Miss her each day
Oh Lord I love her so
