Helplessly Hoping
Am C G
Helplessly hoping her harlequin hovers nearby
D
awaiting a word
Am C G
Gasping at glimpses of gentle true spirit he runs,
G D
wishing he could fly
Am7 C G D
only to trip at the sound of goodbye...
Am C
Wordlessly watching he waits by the window
G D
and wonders at the empty place inside
Am C
Heartlessly helping himself to her bad dreams
G D
he worries did he hear a goodbye
Am7 C G D
or even hello---o o o o
G G/C G G/C
They are one person - they are two alone
G G/C G F C C GCG
they are three together - they are for... each... other
Am C
Stand by the stairway you'll see something certain
G D
to tell you confusion has its cost
Am C
Love isn't lying it's loose in a lady
G D
who lingers saying she is lost
Am7 C G D
and choking on hello---o o o o
G G/C G G/C
They are one person - they are two alone
G G/C G F C C GCG
they are three together - they are for... each... other
