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
