Eli, Eli, you can't tell left from right Eli, Eli, your eyes are black and white Why, why, why, why do you smile at me? Oh, why do you smile at me?
I've been so cruel, mother of mine I've been so cruel to you So, why do you smile at me? I've been away for as long as snow I've been missing for years So, why do you smile at me?
Why do you smile at me? Why do you smile?
Been away for as long as snow I've been missing for years Looking for the son of mine He's been looking for your fears Why, why, why do you leave me far behind? Why, why, why do you leave me here to die?
