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 good-bye

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 good-bye?
or even hello!!
They are one person We 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 it's 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
