[Verse 1] Now and then, your name comes up in conversation with my friends Hate how much I feel it right there in my chest Hate how much I feel it, yeah Like, how are you? It seems like things are going really well for you I wish that I could say the same about me too I can't say the same [Pre-Chorus] And boy, you know I tried to pray I've bruised my knees I tried to bring you back to me I tried my best to find some kind of peace [Chorus] There's a big black hole where my heart used to be And I tried my best to fill it up with things I don't need It don't work likе that, it don't work like that [Verse 2] Without a trace, you disappearеd and took some of me with you, babe Oh, I used to laugh until my belly ache Well, that's all gone away now [Pre-Chorus] And boy, you know I tried my best I bruised my knees
I tried to bring you back to me I tried to find some kind of peace [Chorus] There's a big black hole where my heart used to be And I tried my best to fill it up with things I don't need It don't work like that, it don't work like that There's a big black hole where my heart used to be And I tried my best to fill it up with things I don't need It don't work like that, it don't work like that [Outro] There's a big black hole where my heart used to be And I tried my best to fill it up with things I don't need It don't work like that, it don't work like that There's a big black hole where my heart used to be And I tried my best to fill it up with things I don't need It don't work like that, it don't work like that It don't work like that, no, it's not easy To fill this gap that you left in me
