Start Again

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

They say you never miss it till 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

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

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, if it never mends

It never mends

But I've gotta try to start again
