lyrics

Well they say you’ve been asking about the company I keep

And now you’d like to know what I think

Well I ain’t had a thought, since you set me free

And my companions are Time and Drink

Chorus

When you lied and you left, It made permanent rift, and the Love ran out faster than wine

But you can’t mend a heart with a hole, it can only be filled up with time

Second Verse

Now you’ve got to be honest with yourself

Before spouting your truths, to anyone else

But words can’t speak more, than actions will tell

And the truth is my heart can’t be helped

Repeat Chorus

Third Verse

And forgiveness don’t live in a Heart with a Hole

Your pitch was convincing, but spare me your tears

Though you may be a sight to behold

Your voice is a sound I can’t hear

Chorus

Outro/Alt. Chorus

So you need me to hold, I say cling to the Road! though I know you may think me unkind

no you can't fix a heart with a hole, it can only be filled up in time
