In My Heart
Vernon and Jewel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Leaves are starting to fall
I recall, last time you were here
Your laughter a melody that lingers still
There's a hole in my heart
And I carry it wherever I go
Like a treasure that travels with me down every road
Kind of bitter, kind of sweet
There's a hole in my heart in the shape of you
Time stealing swiftly
Children having children of their own
And around life's merry-go round goes
And there you are wanting what you cannot hold
There's a hole in my heart
And I carry it wherever I go
Like a treasure that travels with me down every road
There's this longing lonesome and deep
Kind of bitter, kind of sweet
There's a hole in my heart in the shape of you
Even though my heart aches
There's a smile on my face
Just like a window to heaven
There's a light shining through
This hole in my heart so I carry it wherever I go
Like a treasure that travels with me down every road
There's this longing lonesome and deep
Kind of bitter, kind of sweet
There's a hole in my heart
There's a hole in my heart
There's a hole in my heart in the shape of you
The lyrics of the song "In My Heart" by Vernon and Jewel talk about the feeling of loss and missing someone who was once close to you. The opening lines "September settled softly, leaves are starting to fall" set a melancholic mood, with the singer recalling their past memories with the person they miss. The line "Your laughter a melody that lingers still" shows the lasting impact the person has had on the singer. This feeling of longing and emptiness is then described as a "hole" in the singer's heart that they carry with them wherever they go, like a treasure.
As the song progresses, there is a realization that time moves on and life continues even without those we miss. The line "children having children of their own, and around life's merry-go-round goes" highlights the cyclical nature of life and the inevitable changes that occur. The singer acknowledges that they cannot hold on to what they want, and yet the "hole" in their heart remains. Despite this, they opt to keep a smile on their face, as if acknowledging that the person they miss would want them to carry on with life.
The song "In My Heart" is a poignant and heartfelt reflection on the nature of loss and grief. It speaks to the universal experience of missing someone who was once a part of our lives, and the feeling of carrying that loss with us no matter where we go.
