So I left the boys in Germany
I went and got a flight on my own
Said I've gotta go
Meet up down the road
And I knew it's our last chance
So I flew you out to France to my show
But I didn't know
No, I should've known
That trying to rebuild
Would only lead to us falling apart
'Cause Paris stole your heart
Paris stole your heart
In every line in my notes
Every song that I wrote
Off the pages you glow
In every line in my notes
Every song that I wrote
Off the pages you glow
So I'm ripping out the pages
And I put 'em to the flame
I'm screaming Helen, oh I
Helen, oh I
I hate to see you go
But I just had to watch you glow
Oh, just one final time
One final time
And Helen, oh I
Helen, oh I
And when you leave my lips
You know you launch a thousand ships every time
Inside of my mind
Inside of my mind
So I give into your forces
And ascend my wooden horses to find
The place you'll reside
The pages you hide in
In every line in my notes
Every song that I wrote
Off the pages you glow
In every line in my notes
Every song that I wrote
Off the pages you glow
So I'm ripping out the pages
And I put 'em to the flame
I'm screaming Helen, oh I
Helen, oh I
I hate to see you go
But I just had to watch you glow
Oh, just one final time
One final time
And Helen, oh I
Helen, oh I
I hate to see you go
But I just had to watch you glow
Oh, just one final time
One final time
Now there's no afterglow
From the pages I roam
All that's left of you is smoke
All that's left of you is smoke
So now I'll never hold ya
I don't know why I never told ya
All the things you should've known, yeah
You should've known, yeah
I never told ya
What I'm gonna do, what I'm going through
What I wanna see, who I wanna be
When I get older
I never told ya, told you
What I wanna do, what I'm going through
What I wanna see, who I wanna be
When I get older
I never told ya, told you
What I wanna do, what I'm going through
What I wanna see, who I wanna be
When I get older
I never told ya, told you
What I'm gonna do, what I'm going through
What I wanna see, who I wanna be
When I get older
I never told ya
I never told ya
