September settles softly
Leaves are starting to fall
I recall the last time you were here
your laughter a melody that lingers still
There's a hole in my heart
and I carry it wherever I go
Like a treasure that travels
with me down every road
There's this longing lonesome and deep
Kind of bitter, kind of sweet
There's a hole in my heart
in the shape of you
Time stealing swiftly
There's children having children of their own
And around life's merry-go-round goes
And there you are wanting what you cannot hold
There's a hole in my heart
and I carry it wherever I go
like a treasure that travels
with me down every road
There's this longing, lonesome and deep
kind of bitter, kind of sweet
There's a hole in my heart
in the shape of you
Even though my heart aches
there's a smile on my face
cause just like a window to heaven
there's a light shining through
This hole in my heart
so I will carry it wherever I go
like a treasure that travels
with me down every road
There's this longing and it's lonesome and it's deep
Kind of bitter, and it's kind of sweet
There's a hole in my heart
There's a hole in my heart
There's a hole in my heart
But it's in the shape of you
