"Heart Half Empty" is the title of a song written by Gary Burr and Desmond Child, and recorded by American country music artists Ty Herndon and Stephanie Bentley as a duet. It was released in 1995 as the third single from his debut album What Mattered Most. The song reached number 21 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart.[1] It later appeared on Bentley's debut album Hopechest, which like What Mattered Most was released on Epic Records.

The song is a ballad about two lovers who, in the emotion following a breakup, ask "Is my heart half full of the love you gave me / Or is my heart half empty, because your love is gone?"[2]
