Home time, I'm getting ready for a long night

They say you never miss it 'til it's gone

Well you're gone and I wish I'd done it better

Mostly I miss having you close to me

The only one who really ever knows me

And I'm sorry, I promise I'll do better, better



There's a hole in the middle of my heart again

Can we start again, can we start again?

There's a hole in the middle and it never mends

It never mends, can we start again?



Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh



Some nights, I kid myself I treated you right

Lying to myself, I didn't know

If I'm honest, I could've done it better

You said we had it pretty much perfect

And then you told me that you loved me

But you're sorry, you needed something better, better



There's a hole in the middle of my heart again

Can we start again, can we start again?

There's a hole in the middle and it never mends

It never mends, can we start again?



Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh



So I guess I'm gonna let you go

But you get to keep a little bit of my soul

So I guess I'm gonna write you out

But I don't think I can do it to me right now

Let's pretend

That time heals all



There's a hole in the middle of my heart again

But I'm not afraid to start, again

Start again, I'm gonna start again

There's a hole in the middle and it never mends

It never mends

But I've gotta try

To start again
