Helplessly Hoping (Live)

Helplessly hoping

Her harlequin hovers nearby

Awaiting a word

Gasping at glimpses of gentle true spirit

He runs wishing he could fly

Only to trip at the sound of goodbye

Wordlessly watching he waits by the window

And wonders at the empty place inside

Heartlessly helping himself to her bad dreams

He worries did he hear a goodbye

Or even hello

They are one person

They are two alone

They are three together

They are for each other

Stanby the stairway you'll see something

Certain to tell you confusion has its cost

Love isn't lying it's loose in a lady

Who lingers saying she is lost

And choking on hello

They are one person

They are two alone

They are three together

They are for each other
