about

Sometimes a lyric just arrives. And with a little magic it becomes a song. This was one of those times.

lyrics

There's a hole - in my heart
It's where the pain gets in
There's a hole - in my heart
It's where the pain gets in

When I was young - that hole was small
I didn't know - the hole would grow

There's a hole in my heart
It's where the world gets in
There's a hole in my heart
It's where the world gets in

I tried to keep - the world at bay
But I soon learned - the world will have its way

It sounds like a dreadful curse for sure
It seems like a thing that I'd avoid
The strangest fact that I can share
Is that I enjoyed - this hole in my heart

There's a hole - in my heart
It's where the love gets in
There's a hole - in my heart
It's where the joy gets in

I know the joy - will come with pain
And it's a price - I'm good to pay

I know the love - will come with loss
No other way - it's just because

There's a hole in my heart
There's a hole in my heart
There's a hole in my heart
