Lyrics:
I remember that Thursday in February
When I first laid my wandering eyes
On Eliza

She looked like a lesbian revolutionary
So tough and scary I thought maybe I wouldn't try

"I eat boys like you for breakfast" she said
And I said "Well, I'd like to make breakfast for you"
Ohhh, Eliza

She moved just like a panther
She had that hungry look in her eyes
In her eyes

She turned her head and kissed me
I touched her shoulder blades and she cried
Yes she cried

She said "you'll never love me"
I said "I do", but I knew that deep in my eyes
I was a liar

She whispered something in my ear
As we laughed, I couldn't hear
I was too in love with Eliza

I remember that Friday in February
I woke up and there was no sign
Of Eliza

She was gone just like a m-m-memory
I knew that I had to find
My Eliza

The city was cold like winter
So strange in the middle of the summertime
Ohh I, I couldn't find her

She whispered something in my ear
As we laughed, I couldn't hear
I was too in love with Eliza

She moved just like a panther
She had that hungry look in her eyes
In her eyes

She turned her head and kissed me
I touched her shoulder blades and she cried
And she cried

She said "you'll never love me"
I said "I do", but I knew that deep in my eyes
I was a liar

She whispered something in my ear
As we laughed, I didn't hear
I was too in love

She whispered something (in my ear)
She whispered something in my ear
I didn't hear, I was too hung up

She-whispered-something (in my ear)
As we walked, I didn't hear
I was too in for

She-whispered-something (in my ear)
As we walked, I didn't hear
I was too in love

(She whispered something in ear)
Too in love with Eliza
