Helplessly Hoping Lyrics
Artist(Band):Crosby, Stills, Nash (and Young)
Review The Song (3)Print the Lyrics
by Stephen Stills, Gold Hill


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
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

Review about Helplessly Hoping

The Earth is the Right Place for love | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/9/09

I think it paints a perfect picture of the struggle between two lovers who ultimately find that although their love is genuine they realize that love is not always enough to keep them together and that ultimately find themselves saying goodbye. Love the word play on the counting!



Inspired by Picasso? | Reviewer: paul | 6/21/09

I am convinced that this song was inspired by a painting by Picasso which hangs in the National Gallery in Washington D.C.: "Family of Saltimbanques". This haunting painting of a family of circus performers has a lovely lady seated on the ground and looking off to the sea? She is quite contained and seems in a world of her own. On the left stands the rest of the family with the harlequin facing awaybut turning his head to profile. Some say that Picasso painted himself as the harlequin. Anyway the painting is full of the mystery of human relationships as is the song. If you love this song like I do, you will probably be interested to google this painting and have a look for yourself. Even better if you are in the D.C. area, go to the museum and see it. It is a huge painting and covers a whole wall as I remember.



Amazingly beautiful | Reviewer: Jose Arraiza | 9/14/08

This is one of the most beautiful songs I have heard. Geat poetry... the images of love between a man and a woman, the anxiety and anticipation of hello and the nostalgic and blue goodbyes. Minimalistic, simple, one guita, four amazing voices and an unforgetably, clasic, universal song of love.
