Lyrics
Here is another song what I have writ
It is a lot of alliteration from a cautious cowboy
Called "Helplessly Hoping"
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
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
