Helena - Nickel Creek

Song I love. Makes me cry, though =/ *I love you dad*

Album: Why Should the Fire Die?

Lyrics:

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've 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 debt
So 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

And Helena, so will we
So will everything in time, mmm

Helena, don't walk away
Did you hear one word I said
Oh well, I never really liked us 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 want
Cause 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

La la la, la la la, la la la
La la la, la la la, la la la

thank you for posting this.

@jaytheshire thanks for watching!

I can see how this song makes you cry, and how you can love it. It's very lovable and cry-inducing.

[ShadowHaruka]

@LuxLilith Well see, most of the reason it makes me cry was because my dad loved this music...Nickel Creek...and I started listening to it after he passed away

[LuxLilith]

So it's the same with all Nickel Creek songs for you? It still seems like it'd be somewhat hard to start crying from listening to a Rage Against The Machine song or some such. Maybe some do, I've never really thought about it.

[ShadowHaruka]

@LuxLilith I wouldn't say that every Nickel Creek song makes me cry but most of them on Why Should The Fire Die are sad... and each song sort of has a different meaning to me.
