The Whole Where Your Heart Belongs Songtext
von Madder Mortem

There′s a place by the water where the sea stands to win,
Where the waves bend their heads as if in grief
And there's a hole in the levee where the tide washes in
You′d be amazed at what is left when it recedes

Songs buried with a friend
Drift back to flood your eyes again
Drowned, renounced, disowned
They crawl back home to grow

And it seems it never will let you go
And never, oh, never fade
The hole where your heart belongs
Will remain


Don't turn your back on that dark pool
What it swallows, it keeps,
Forever rolling in the billows
You know that if the wind turns inland,
Breakers white over the shoals,
All it carries will be flung back up on the shore

'Cause some things have no end
The waves will bring them back again
To join their own
Sad and cold and slow

And it seems it never will let you go
And never, oh, never fade
The hole where your heart belongs
Will remain

Dead things born again
Dead things brought home again

You know it won′t let you go
And never, oh, never fade
The hole where your heart belongs
Will remain
