Janis Ian Lyrics
Holes

There are holes in my shoes.
There are holes in my clothes.
There’s a hole in my heart,
Where you used to go.
My heart.
There’s a hole in my lips,
where you used to kiss me.
A hole in the hole,
And nobody fits me now,
Oh, now.

And I could find somebody new,
There’s a lot of fish in the sea.
But every time I see one next to you,
I know this hole’s where my soul
Wants to be.

There’s a hole in the wall,
Where my fist found your face.
There’s a hole in the soul,
Of the whole human race.
Your face.
Holes in the flesh.
Holes in the bone.
Holes in this bed.
Where I now dance alone.
Our home.

And I could find somebody new,
There’s a match for every flame.
Any time I strike one next to you,
An' I know that hole will never
Be the same.

There’s a crack in the world,
Where it holds up the sky.
And it bleeds from the mouth,
And it foams from the eye.
There’s a hole in this desert,
My life has become.
I am rock, I am stone,
I am blind an' deaf an' dumb.

There are holes in my shoes.
Holes in my clothes.
Holes in my heart.
Where you used to go.
My heart.

And I could find somebody new,
And finally be set free.
But every time I see someone with you,
I know that hole’s where my soul
Wants to be.
