Helpless and Hoping

She talks about it all the time

But she's met him a thousand times before

He's pretty but he ain't so wise

Keeps talking but he should know less is more

Say you'll never be

Crawling on your knees

Helpless and hoping

He's sleeping on an oversight

Can't see it but he's dreaming out the door

He's charming but he's oh so tired

Put to bed when he thought she wanted more

Stand at my window thinking

All of my plans been sinking

Best to go alone sometimes

No pressure when he gets back late at night

Say you'll never be

Crawling on your knees

Helpless and hoping

Say you'll always be

Walking in your feet

Helpless and hoping

Don't give away too much

Oh (sometimes) you gotta trust your gut

When you need to heal, give up

When you need to deal, good luck
