[Songtext zu „Helplessly Hoping“]

[Verse 1]
Helplessly hopin', her harlequin hovers nearby
Awaitin' the word
Gaspin' at glimpses of gentle true spirit
He runs, wishin' he could fly, I
Only to trip at the sound of goodbye

[Verse 2]
Wordlessly watchin'
He waits by the window
And wonders
At the empty place inside
Heartlessly helpin' himself to her bad dreams
He worries
Did he hear a goodbye?
Or even "Hello"?

[Chorus]
They are one person
They arе two alone
They are three togеther
They are for each other

[Verse 2]
Stand by the stairway, you'll see somethin' certain
To tell you "Confusion has its cost"
Love isn't lyin', it's loose in a lady who lingers
Sayin' she is lost
And choking on "Hello"

[Chorus]
They are one person
They are two alone
They are three together
They are for each other
