Helplessly Hoping Songtext
von Of Mice & Men

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 goodbye

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 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 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 and choking on hello

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