[Verse]
I was staring
at the sky, ju
st looking for
a star
To pray on, or
wish on, or s
omething like
that
I was having a
sweet fix of
a daydream of
a boy
Whose reality
I knew, was a
hopeless to be
had
But then the d
ove of hope be
gan its downwa
rd slope
And I believed
for a moment
that my chance
s
Were approachi
ng to be grabb
ed
But as it came
down near, so
did a weary t
ear
I thought it w
as a bird, but
it was just a
paper bag
[Chorus]
Hunger hurts,
and I want him
so bad, oh it
kills
'Cause I know
I'm a mess he
don't wanna cl
ean up
I got to fold
'cause these h
ands are too s
haky to hold
Hunger hurts,
but starving w
orks, when it
costs too much
to love
[Verse 2]
And I went cra
zy again today
,
Looking for a
strand to clim
b, looking for
a little hope
Baby said he c
ouldn't stay,
wouldn't put h
is lips to min
e
And a fail to
kiss is a fail
to cope
I said, 'Honey
, I don't feel
so good, don'
t feel justifi
ed
Come on put a
little love he
re in my void,
'
He said?'It's
all in your he
ad,'
and I said, 'S
o's everything
,' but he didn
't get it
I thought he w
as a man
But he was jus
t a little boy
[Chorus]
Hunger hurts,
and I want him
so bad, oh it
kills
'Cause I know
I'm a mess he
don't wanna cl
ean up
I got to fold
'cause these h
ands are too s
haky to hold
Hunger hurts,
but starving w
orks, when it
costs too much
to love
Hunger hurts,
but I want him
so bad, oh it
kills
'Cause I know
I'm a mess he
don't wanna cl
ean up
I got to fold
'cause these h
ands are too s
haky to hold
Hunger hurts,
but starving w
orks, when, wh
en it costs to
o much to love
Oh, hunger hur
ts, and I want
him so bad, o
h it kills
Because I know
I'm a mess th
at he don't wa
nna clean up
I got to fold
'cause these h
ands are just
too shaky to h
old
Hunger hurts,
but starving,
it works, when
it costs too
much to love
