I was staring at the sky

Just looking for a star

To pray on or wish on or something 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 dove of hope began its downward slope

And I believed for a moment

That my chances were approaching to be grabbed

But as it came down near

So did a weary tear

I thought it was a bird but it was just a paper bag

Hunger hurts and I want him so bad oh it kills

Cause I know I'm a mess he don't wanna clean up

I've gotta fold cause these hands are too shaky to hold

Hunger hurts starving works when it costs too much to love

And I went crazy again today

Looking for a strand to climb

Looking for a little hope

Baby said he couldn't stay

Wouldn't put his lips to mine

And a fail to kiss is a fail to cope

I said honey I don't feel so good

Don't feel justified

Come on put a little love here in my void

He said it's all in your head

I said so's everything but he didn't get it

I thought he was a man but he was just a little boy

Hunger hurts and I want him so bad oh it kills

Cause I know I'm a mess he don't wanna clean up

I've gotta fold cause these hands are too shaky to hold

Hunger hurts and starving works when it costs too much to love

Hunger hurts and I want him so bad oh it kills

Cause I know I'm a mess he don't wanna clean up

I've gotta fold because these hands are just too shaky to hold

Hunger hurts and starving works when it costs too much to love

Hunger hurts and I want him so bad oh it kills

Because I know that I'm a mess he don't wanna clean up

I've gotta to fold because these hands are just too shaky to hold

Hunger hurts and starving it works when it costs too much to love
