Lyrics
Eleanor by Nicola Bloom & Jean Fessey ?
Eleanor was only 15, seen her smile when she wasn't lookin'
Head in the clouds, always dreamin about what could-a-been
Shyer than most, never strayed from politely, had a handful of dreams wrapped up tightly,
Who would have known those secrets bury deep, so it's no surprising,
Lonely, Eleanor would end up lonely,
Slowly, passing time,
Ever so lonely, Eleanor waits for the day, hey hey
Eleanor was nearly 16, seen her cry when she wasn't lookin' head in her hands always
Searchin' every place, every little face,
Never got close, couldn't bear the shame,
Somewhere out there the family name,
Who would have thought, them secrets bury deep, so it's no surprising..
Lonely, Eleanor would end up lonely,
Slowly, passing time,
Ever so lonely, Eleanor waits for the day, hey hey hey,
Eleanor, Eleanor, Eleanor
Eleanor was only 15, seen her smile when she wasn't lookin'
Head in the clouds always dreamin, about what could-a-been,
Shyer than most, never strayed from politely, had a handful of dreams wrapped up tightly,
Who would have known those secrets bury deep, so it's no surprising.....
Lonely, Eleanor would end up lonely,
Slowly, passing time,
Ever so lonely, Eleanor waits for the day, hey hey hey,
Eleanor, Eleanor, Eleanor, ahh, ahh, ahhh.
