Intro: Verse There's a void in my heart I can't seem to fill Been a parent, had three children and a big house on the hill Hundred dollar in my pocket and it didn't buy a thing Now there's a void in my heart and a hole in my dreams Verse Well I poured miles of concrete and strung wire for telephones ditches when I was a young boy when I first left my parents' home Sang my songs for millions of people, sang good and bad news Now there's a void in my heart and a fire at my fuse Verse Well I did everything just like they said so I could find happiness Went to school and got a college degree and at my job I did my best As I sit here alone tonight I see a billion just like me With a void in their hearts and running from eternity Bridge Verse There's a void in my heart I can't seem to fill I do charity work when I believe in the cause But in my soul it bothers me still Hey, Lord, well you made me like I am Can You heal this restlessness? Will there be a void in my heart When they carry me out to rest?
