Helplessly Hoping

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

This is a very important song for us
And it was written by Neil
And it's called "Ohio"

This song is a sort of a, sort of a downer
But it's also sort of a chant, you know
We all sort of sing it together, even know if it's a bummer or it will make us happy
You know
So, at the end, when you hear us repeating over and over
Just sing words with us and we'll all get together
