Helplessly Hoping - Gossos

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 good-bye

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 good-bye or even hello

They are 1 person

They are 2 alone

They are 3 together

They are 4 for each other

Stand by the stairway you’ll see something certain to tell you

Confusion has its cost

Love isn’t lying its loose in a lady who lingers

Saying she is lost

And choking on hello

They are 1 person

They are 2 alone

They are 3 together

They are 4 for each other
