Helplessly Hoping

Taxiride

Helplessly hoping 
Her harlequin hovers near by 
Awaiting they were 
Gasping at glimpses of gentle true spirit 
He runs wishing he could fly, hay
Only to trip at the sound of good-bye?

Wordlessly watching we 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, hay 
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, lost
And choking on hello?

They are one person 
They are two alone 
They are three together 
They are four each other
