My Vacant Heart

I
I’m looking for the right one
To sign on a lasting lease
I’ve given up on passing thrills
No more one nighters please
I want someone who’ll stay and fill
My vacant heart
II
Though it’s hard looking back
At false starts from so called friends
When tenderness got burdensome
I wound up in dead ends
It’s love that soothes the aching from
My vacant heart
Bridge
What questions can I ask
To break off from my past
Is there a truth I must obey
To help me change my ways
III
I’d give away this special key
To the one who’d keep it safe
It opens up the inner door
To my hope, love and faith
Then I'd take down this sign for
My vacant heart
