Poor Heart Lyrics - John Wesley Harding

Poor heart, what to do? 

Dim the light 

There's no respite 

For you, for you 

Poor heart, can you see? 

Will you beat 

A sad retreat for me? 

Poor heart 

Poor mouth, poor eyes 

Poor soul, poor mind 

Poor start, poor heart 

Poor heart, look around 

Who else remains 

Who can contain 

Your frown, your frown? 

Poor heart, why so vain? 

Are you rich enough 

To play so rough again? 

Poor heart 

Poor mouth, poor eyes 

Poor soul, poor mind 

Poor start, poor heart 

Poor heart, here's your part 

Nothing's done 

Till it is sung 

Poor heart
