Lost And Damned

1. Helena you came to me
When seemingly life had begun
Little did I know then
Where this would go
When this begun
Once I was free to fly
I never promised anything
This may well be goodbye.

[Chorus:]
Don't ask why
Don't be sad
Sometimes we all
Must alter paths we planned
Only try understand
I want to save you
From the lost and damned.

2. Although you hold me close
I feel retention arise
Just as a hint of fear
Like subtle clouds
In summer skies
Once in the moonlight
I can't explain
And I don't know
Somehow we may reunite.

[Bridge:]
Love means nothing to me
If there is a higher place to be.

Helena don't you cry
Believe me; I do this for you
Heed my decision now
I will be gone tomorrow noon
My tale has just begun
Nothing can take my faith away
In my quest for the sun.

[Coda:]
Don't ask why
Don't be sad
Sometimes we all
Must alter paths we planned
Leave me behind, don't look back
Because deep within you know
I'm lost and damned.
