when will i see you again?

April, 2002

when will I see you again?
the question betrays my weak heart,
left here unguarded, how will I be pardoned
for wanting what I cannot start?

oh, when will I see you again?
I found myself calling your name,
I could pretend this is only a friendly reminder,

but that wouldn’t change the wishes I cannot defend,
when will I see you again?

a letter that I’ll never send,
when will I see you.. oh,

when will I see you again?
what is to come of this spark?
fading as embers I try to remember
your bright eyes, alone in the dark,

all good things come to an end,
some of them never begin,
the wishes I cannot defend,
when will I see you again?
