Where I used to have a heart

Feels like a mile wide ditch

I got a hole inside

The doctor just can't stitch

Gone without a trace

You left a hollow place

There's not a stone to mark

Where I used to have a heart.

There were times when I would hold you

And feel the pounding in my chest

Now I'm just as empty

As a canyon way out west

That's how deep I loved you

And babe, I love you still

To the bottom of this place I'll never fill.

Where I used to have a heart

Feels like a mile wide ditch

I got a hole inside

The doctor just can't stitch

Gone without a trace

You left a hollow place

There's not a stone to mark

Where I used to have a heart.

I guess I'll learn to live with

A different kind of pain

I'm suffering from a sickness

That I cannot give a name

Such a strange sensation

I've never felt before

Missing you has cut me to the core.

Where I used to have a heart

Feels like a mile wide ditch

I got a hole inside

The doctor just can't stitch

Gone without a trace

You left a hollow place

There's not a stone to mark

Where I used to have a heart

Where I used to have a heart.
