I have a hole inside my heart A hole that's shaped like you A hole so big I feel it ache Every time I move At first I didn't notice I thought my heart was strong I figured I was happy Even though you were long gone Physically I felt okay Though my soul was torn apart I pretended everything was fine And I even played the part I lived my life from day to day In a cheerful, up beat manner I was caught up in a world of firsts And got lost in all the glamour But as soon as I got home again My heart began to crumble Slowly it got worse and worse So bad it made me stumble Stumble over every thought that drove us both away I wondered if I'd ever feel Or love again someday So now I live looking for a piece that will fit inside the hole Anything that will complete my hollow little soul Ideally you would mend me By coming home to stay But fantasies are empty dreams that keep despair at bay I know that you are happy now And I'm just a distant thought The only thing I do regret is that I never fought If you ever think of me Remember that I tried To give you all the love and joy That a woman can provide I loved you then I love you now And tomorrow is uncertain The hole might grow or disappear but you will never be forgotten
