LYRICS
Everybody’s got a heart with a hole in the bottom where the love runs out
Every love is a flame that spins and dims in the wind
So if your flame needs fuel
Like an empty room
I feel it too
‘Cause everybody’s got a heart with a hole in the bottom where the love runs out
Oh now
Oh I got both hands on the wheel
So if you’re running out
Out of love
Don’t start giving up
Any time you think there’s not enough
I got enough for the both of us
Even if you’re falling out
Out of love
I’m not giving up
Any time you think there’s not enough
I got enough for the both of us
Everybody’s got a hurt
It’s a knife that cuts when you get too close
And you think that no one’s ever gonna see that blade and stay
But I can hold that pain for a thousand days
And maybe for a second make it go away
And make you feel whole again
So if you’re running out
Out of love
Don’t start giving up
Any time you think there’s not enough
I got enough for the both of us
Even if you’re falling out
Out of love
I’m not giving up
Any time you think there’s not enough
I got enough for the both of us
Ohh Oh Oh
Ohh Oh Oh
Everybody’s got a heart with a hole in the bottom where the love runs out
But I’ll be reaching out, catching every drop you spill
