Helplessly Hoping - Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

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 good-bye

Or even hello

They are one person

They are two alone

They are three together

They are for each other

Stand by 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
