NICKEL CREEK - Helena lyrics

rate me

Helena, don't walk away

Before you give me back my heart

If it were mine it would be yours to take

I'm sorry I let down my guard, oh Helena

You looked so sweet

I should have seen

While I was playing for fun

You were playing for keeps

You win I lose

Is there some way

You can leave me

In your debts oh my girl

And I can live to die another day

On that day I won't forget you Helena

You look so sweet

Waiting for me

While I wait for her

To give me any reason to leave

Don't waste your pretty sympathy

She's gonna be just fine

Helena so will we

So will everything in time

Helena don't walk away

Did you hear one word I said oh well

I never really liked her anyway

And I forgot her: I'll forget you Helena

You're not that sweet

And neither is she

Go ahead and tell her anything

You are good Helena

Guys like me never sleep alone at night

I don't need your sympathy

Cause I'll always be

Just fine

Yeah I'll always be

Just fine

Yeah I'll always be

Just fine
