Борис Гребенщиков (Boris Grebenshchikov)
Eloise
[Verse 1]
Eloise, standing in the rain outside
Wondering if the sky is really made out of air
There she is, always looking right at me
But is she? I can't really tell
And I don't really care

[Verse 2]
Eloise, something of the child
Something of the bride
And sometimes just not there
Help me, please, discover about your secret life
And the purpose behind the clothes that you wear

[Chorus]
I just need some time to settle down
Just need some time to settle down
I need to get my feet on the ground
Before I can dance with you
But now, I can't even see you now
And she smiles, and she turnes
And she says: "I know, I know..."

[Verse 3]
Eloise, staring at the sea
Seven white birds
Sing, lost in her hair
I've heard she is
Lethal for the likes of me
Well, I can't really tell
And I don't really care
[Chorus]
I just need some time to settle down
Just need some time to settle down
Just need to get my feet on the ground
Before I can dance with you
But now, I can't even see you now
And she smiles, and she turnes
And she says: "I know, I know..."
