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 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 gray 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 got to focus, his hands are too shaky to hold Hunger hurts, but 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 would fail to kiss or 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 boy He said it's all in your head And 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 got to focus, his hands are too shaky to hold Hunger hurts, but starving works 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 clean up I got to focus, his hands are too shaky to hold Hunger hurts, but starving works 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 clean up I got to focus, his hands are too shaky to hold Hunger hurts, but starving works when it costs too much to love Thanks for watching!
