I'll come and say hi when I see Eli
I'll come and say hi
I'll come and say hi when I see Eli
I'll come and say hi

Oh Eli, you're a thief you stole my heart
As I dream I see your wings glow in the dark
A message that rings loud and true
Indelible coming from you

Oh you make the connection
And I'll follow your suggestion when you say

I'll come and say hi when I see Eli
I'll come and say hi
I'll come and say hi when I see Eli
I'll come and say hi

Oh Eli your wisdom belies your age
Here's to you a guru of strength and grace

Cause the first one to reach out a hand
Shows more courage than the one who does last

With all our imperfections
Your light shines in all directions
Cutting through

I'll come and say hi when I see Eli
I'll come and say hi
I'll come and say hi when I see Eli
I'll come and say hi
I'll come and say hi when I see Eli
I'll come and say hi
I'll come and say hi when I see Eli
I'll come and say hi
Oh Eli I'll come and say hi
