Help
Franck Pourcel and His Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You took my heart away
And now I dread each newborn day
Can I help it?
Can I help it?
Along each thorough fair
While people stop and stare
I talk to you but you're not there
I try to sleep
My dreams are haunted
By a million stars that pry
How can I sleep?
Your eyes look just that way
The day we said goodbye...
I tried forgetting you
I tried to hurt you too
But now I find I still love you
Can I help it, sweetheart?
The lyrics of "Help" by Franck Pourcel and His Orchestra are about heartbreak and the struggles of moving on from a lost love. The first verse sets the tone of the song with the singer acknowledging that their heart has been taken away by the person they loved, and now they dread each new day without them. The lyrics "Can I help it?" are repeated throughout the song, suggesting that the singer is questioning their own ability to move on and forget about their lost love.
The second verse talks about how the singer tries to carry on with their life, despite the loss they've experienced. They walk down thoroughfares and talk to their lost love as if they were still there, showing that they can't seem to let go of their feelings for this person. The chorus comes back in with the same refrain, as the singer claims that even when they try to sleep, their dreams are haunted by thoughts of their lost love.
The final verse has the singer admitting that they've tried to forget their ex-lover and even tried to hurt them in return, but in the end, they still love them. The song ends with the same refrain of "Can I help it, sweetheart?" It's a powerful song that expresses the pain and heartbreak of lost love and the difficulty of moving on.

You left one yesterday
You chose to leave me recently
You took my heart away
You broke my heart when you left
And now I dread each newborn day
Every new day is a struggle now that you're gone
Can I help it?
Can I do anything to change how I feel?
Can I help it?
Can I control my emotions?
Along each thorough fair
Everywhere I go
While people stop and stare
People notice that I'm not the same without you
I talk to you but you're not there
I still try to communicate with you even though you're not around
Can I help it, sweetheart?
Is there anything I can do to bring you back?
I try to sleep
I attempt to rest
My dreams are haunted
My dreams are filled with thoughts of you
By a million stars that pry
So many memories of us together invade my mind
How can I sleep?
How can I find rest with all of these emotions?
Your eyes look just that way
I can still picture the way your eyes looked when we said goodbye
The day we said goodbye...
The day our relationship ended
I tried forgetting you
I made an effort to move on from you
I tried to hurt you too
I wanted to make you feel how I was feeling
But now I find I still love you
Despite everything, I realize I still have feelings for you
Can I help it, sweetheart?
Is there anything I can do to change the way things are?

Desde muy joven aprendí a escuchar esta música,me encanta,dejé de hacerlo por no tener a mi familia ,porque soy la última de todos hermanos 6 y 2 mis padres ,se fueron jóvenes tengo 75 años y recién nuevamente escucho,al principio con mucho dolor llore muchísimo porque me recordó a mi núcleo familiar , y no pude soportar la tristeza, escuchábamos siempre está música ,ahora hoy recién lo supere con amor paz y resignación ,algún día los seguiré , GRACIAS 🇵🇪

Comencé a escuchar a Franck Pourcel a la edad de 12 años, me conquistó en el acto. Me acompañó en toda mi infancia, juventud y hoy con 63 años en el 2020 sigo disfrutando de este gran maestro y otros tan magníficos como él tales como Paul Mauriat, Bert Kaempfert, Ray Conniff, etc que llenan mi vida de armonía y felicidad con esas melodías inmortales.
