Helene Lyrics

There is a church bell

 That rings on the hour

 Filling the streets

 Stopping the world awhile

 Loud is the laughter

 From in the schoolyard

 Prickling my ears

 Telling me time's passing by

 Helene

 Comfort me

 Helene

 I am falling

 There is a name

 I've replaced with my own

 It's taken me years

 Now it's dark and unknown

 Though I scoff at the things

 That I said long ago

 I knew what I'd find

 C'est toi mon bouchon, mon bouchon

 Helene

 Comfort me

 Helene

 I am falling



 Try as you may

 This is not my real home

 And I miss how the sun

 Comes up late in the morning

 For all that I want

 There is really not much you can do

 Outside the harbor

 The windsurfers ride

 Working their sails

 As navy ships lag behind

 Off to a country

 With waves full of grain

 A boyhood of mine

 And a dream that

 Will always remain

 Helene

 Comfort me

 Helene

 I am falling
