Helplessly Hoping lyrics by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
=======================Song Title: HELPLESSLY HOPING
Artist: CROSBY, STILLS, NASH AND YOUNG
Composers: STEPHEN STILLS
=======================
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 four 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 four each other
