Lyrics

Sing, O Muse, of the story
I learned when I was a boy
The face that launched a thousand ships
And burned the towers of Troy
Now I'm a poor man and honest
But I would trade all of my gold
Just to dream once more of you telling
The greatest joke ever told
My lover lies over the ocean
All rivers still run to the sea
What I would give to be shown a small kindness
The oak does not bend with the reeds
Well, I didn't ask to be chosen
I'm giving you all I can give
Let everybody come gather around
And feast on the ones who lived
Hera, she offered me power
Told me that I would be king
Lord of the world and everything in it
My praises the people would sing
Athena, she offered me wisdom
To rival the gods above
But Aphrodite leaned over and whispered
That she could bring me your love
The omens were not taken lightly
The prophecies did not deceive
They said "death to the ones who would uproot the garden
In defense of planting their seed"
The apple is ripe for the taking
The veil of the temple is torn
You're just the ghost of Laura Palmer
Does that make me Benjamin Horne?
My words they are costing me dearly
Pray they will not be in vain
Come to me now on the wings of the morning
Singing the endless refrain
Oh, I see the moon and the moon sees me
And the moon sees somebody I want to see
I see the moon and the moon sees me
And the moon looks just like Persephone
Helen of Troy
Helen of Troy
Helen of Troy
Bring me Helen of Troy
