OSKA - Helplessly Hoping Lyrics

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

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"?

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

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"

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