Analysis of Helen



I wish you were a rose in my garden
I wish I smell every day
Helen , Helen , my rose , Helen
Come to us every day , Helen

I wish you were my sun in the sky
I wish you rose once a day
Helen , Helen , my sun , Helen
Come and settle us , Helen

I wish you were my water , in faucet
I wish I drink you everyday until quench
I wish you never leaves this house
Helen , Helen , my beatiful Helen

I wish you give life to this house
I wish you were my childs mother
I wish I hug you every day
Helen , Helen , my beatiful , Helen
