When we were younger, not much younger than t<br />

We came to study in Israel, we flew here all the way<br />

And now these days have gone, and we’re not so insecure<br />

Unpacked our bags, made new friends<br />

And learned to speak Hebfew.<br />

Help me Mom and Dad I’m feelin’ down<br />

And I don’t have much money in my account<br />

Help me get some mail this time around<br />

Won’t you Please, PLEASE, help me?<br />

And now our lives have changed, in oh so many ways<br />

Our independence has increased throughout the days.<br />

Now that it’s time to say “Good-bye, hope things are good”<br />

Time to leave, we’ll miss our friends<br />

Like we never thought we would.<br />

Help me Mom and Dad I’m feelin’ down<br />

And I don’t have much money in my account<br />

Help me get some mail this time around<br />

Won’t you please, PLEASE, help me?<br />

And now our time is up. it’s time to leave Israel<br />

We saw the North, we saw the South, we lived in the middle<br />

So-long to all our friends, our dorms, and yes to our school<br />

Didn’t think it would be hard to leave?<br />

Life is sometimes cruel.<br />

Help me Mom and Dad I’m feelin’ down<br />

’cause I can’t bear it without y’all around<br />

If I have to pay the phone bill I will drown<br />

Won’t you please, please write to me<br />

Call me, write me, PLEASE ooooh!<br />
