They say home is where the heart is but I got a hole where my heart is

  • Now and then
    Your name comes up in conversation with my friends
    I hate how much I feel it right there in my chest
    I hate how much I feel it, yeah
    Like, how are you?
    It seems like things are going really well for you
    I wish that I could say the same about me too
    I wish that I could say the same

    And boy, you know I've tried to pray, I've bruised my knees
    I've tried to bring you back to me
    I've tried my best to find some kind of peace
    Don't you see?

    There's a big black hole where my heart used to be
    And I've tried my best to fill it up with things I don't need
    It don't work like that, no, it's not easy
    To fill this gap that you left in me
    There's a big black hole where my heart used to be
    And I wish that you would realize I'm all that you need
    It don't work like that, no, it's not easy
    To fill this gap that you left in me

    Without a trace
    You disappeared and took some of me with you, babe
    Like the way I used to laugh until my belly ached
    Well, that's all gone away now, yeah

    And boy, you know I've tried to pray, I've bruised my knees
    I've tried to bring you back to me
    I've tried my best to find some kind of peace
    Don't you see?

    There's a big black hole where my heart used to be
    And I've tried my best to fill it up with things I don't need
    It don't work like that, no, it's not easy
    To fill this gap that you left in me
    There's a big black hole where my heart used to be
    And I wish that you would realize I'm all that you need
    It don't work like that, no, it's not easy
    To fill this gap that you left in me (that you left in me)

    Oh, oh, oh, oh (there's such a big black hole)
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh, oh (that you left in me)
    Oh, oh, oh, oh

    There's a big black hole where my heart used to be
    And I've tried my best to fill it up with things I don't need
    It don't work like that, no, it's not easy
    To fill this gap that you left in me (oh, that you left in me)
    There's a big black hole where my heart used to be (oh, yeah, you left in me)
    And I wish that you would realize I'm all that you need (no)
    It don't work like that, no, it's not easy (oh no, it's not easy)
    To fill this gap that you left in me (that you left in me)

    beautifully made and heart-warming

    It is not that a movie such as "Where The Heart Is" comes along and makes an impression so huge that you don't want to see it end. This is exactly what happened to me when I sat down to watch "Where The Heart Is."

    Within the first few moments of the film, I knew it would be special; this reason is Natalie Portman. Portman has a unique look of innocence that cannot be pulled off by many actresses as she does with her character, Novalee Nation. I couldn't wait for the next scene she would be in because of the physical beauty she possesses and the beauty in the performance she gives.

    Complimenting the performance of Portman is that of Ashley Judd. As I was watching Judd and Portman, I could tell that these are two actresses who knew exactly what the other would say and do the moment before it was actually done. Ashley Judd lights up the screen every SINGLE time she arrives in a scene. It is a no wonder she is the best at what she does.

    Another reason I liked "Where The Heart Is" relates to the double story lines of Portman's character determined to raise her daughter by herself while trying to make a career in photography. The other storyline revolved around the ex-boyfriend trying to make a name for himself in country music.

    The cool thing is that these are hobbies of mine and whenever I saw a camera or heard country music it brought a smile to my face. Not only are these hobbies of mine but they are both testaments to what can be done if one works hard enough to attain a specific goal.

    The story is one that will take you on a journey through the depths of your heart, soul, and end up in your head relaying the message that "Where The Heart Is" is a phenomenal movie.

    "Where The Heart Is" is not only my favorite film but the best film of 2000. GO SEE THIS WONDERFUL WORK OF ART.
