The lantern dims,

the light goes out,

the saving hymns,

another  bout

of jealousy.

When will my heart learn?

They're not for me,

though my heart is yearning,

I just cannot see,

the world just keeps on turning.

When will my brain stop?

Wish all i may,

I know it will never be true,

because, in the light of day,

and very far away, there's you.

When does the dawn come?

But now I know,

that I must try harder.

I must let it go,

I must be my hearts guarder.

When will my silly little heart learn?
