Helplessly hoping
Her h arlequin hovers nearby
Awaiting a word
Gasping at glimpses
Of gentle true spirit
He r uns, wishing he could fly
Only to tr ip at the s ound of good-b ye
Wordlessly watching
He waits by the window
And wonders
At the empty place inside
He artlessly helping himself to her bad dreams
He worries
Did he hear a good-b ye? Or ev en hello?
They are one person
They are two alone
They are three together
They are f our fo r each other
Stand by the stairway
You'll see something
Certain to t ell you confusion has its cost
Love isn't lying
It's l oose in a lady who lingers
Saying she is lost
And ch oking on hello
They are o ne person
They are t wo alone
They are t hree together
They are f our fo r each other
