As I sit beside my window
And the rain begins to fall
There's a girl that I remember
And a love that I recall

There's a letter in my pocket
I read a hundred times and it's burning a hole in my mind

Gotta get myself together
Gotta try to understand
That she's lost and gone forever
And she's found another man

But every night I think about her
Lying by his side, Lord, it's burning a hole in my mind

Oh, it's burning
It keeps on burning
Lord, it's burning a hole in my mind

As I live each moment over
Of the love we used to know
That old spark begins to smoulder
That old flame begins to grow
Then the fire keeps getting hotter
A little at a time till it's burning a hole in my mind

Don't you know it's burning a hole in my mind

Yeah, it's burning a hole in my mind
