Eloise, eloise, you alone could not cure me of this incurable disease
I skipped town for some time, when i came home id lost that smile
That youd learned to love & then learned to live without
What was left, sweet eloise, was a haunted memory
Of a new lover uncovering the saddest sights in me
Nothing makes you wanna quit like a stranger telling you
That the midnight parts inside yr heart are all thats shining through
Eloise, eloise, you do not belong to me
But every good woman deserves a life of decent company
Well you can polish all yr kings,
But you better play them god damn things
Wont you come over tonight, pick up a fight
& learn how to win even when you lose
Sweet eloise
But nothing makes you wanna quit like a stranger telling you
That the midnight parts inside yr heart are all but coming true
