1
There's a void in my heart
2
I can't seem to fill.
3
Been a parent, had three children,
4
And a big house on the hill.
5
Hundred dollar in my pocket,
6

10
And strung wire for telephones,

And a fire at my fuse.
17
Well, I did everything just like they said
18
So I could find happiness.

Went to school and got a college degree,
20
And at my job I did my best.
21
As I sit here alone, tonight,
22

With a void in their hearts and running from eternity.

26
But in my soul it bothers me still.
27
Hey, Lord, well, you made me like I am;
28

Will there be a void in my heart
30
When they carry me out to rest?
