"Hollow Heart" lyrics

"Hollow Heart"

You move around like running water
It seems like you might never settle down
Well, I spent a lifetime waiting for you
While you were runnin' 'round the town

You'll always have a place with me, Dear
A place inside this hollow heart of mine
But it's all right, my little darling
Ain't ready to just keep steppin' down the line

Well, I had a dream that I was dying
I was bleeding while the rain was pouring down
When you appeared inside my dream, Dear
You just left me lyin' on the ground

Won't come home and say you're sorry
You just come on in and crawl your ass in bed
But it's all right, my little darling
You're crawling over someone else, instead

Them pretty eyes are always roving
And I guess you never will be true
This love of ours is a disaster
But I keep holdin' on to you

Seasons come and go while waiting
And my hollow heart is empty all the time
But it's all right, my little Darling
And you'd rather just keep steppin' down the line
But it's all right, my little Darling
And you'd rather just keep steppin' down the line
