Peter Kingsbery 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
