[Verse 1]
Poor heart
What to do?
Dim the light
There's no respite
For you
For you

[Verse 2]
Poor heart
Can you see?
Will you beat
A sad retreat for me
Poor heart?

[Chorus]
Poor mouth
Poor eyes
Poor soul
Poor mind
Poor start
Poor heart

[Verse 3]
Poor heart
Look around
Who else remains
Who can contain
Your frown?
Your frown
[Verse 4]
Poor heart
Why so vain?
Are you rich enough
To play so rough
Again
Poor heart?

[Chorus]
Poor mouth
Poor eyes
Poor soul
Poor mind
Poor start
Poor heart

[Verse 5]
Poor heart
Here's your part
Nothing's done
Till it is sung
Poor heart
