Florence and the Machine (Florence + The Machine) - Hunger lyrics

[Intro] Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh [Verse 1] At seventeen, I started to starve myself I thought that love was a kind of emptiness And at least I understood then the hunger I felt And I didn’t have to call it loneliness [Chorus] We all have a hunger We all have a hunger We all have a hunger We all have a hunger [Pre-Chorus] Tell me what you need, oh, you look so free The way you use your body, baby, come on and work it for me Don’t let it get you down, you’re the best thing I’ve seen We never found the answer but we knew one thing [Chorus] We all have a hunger We all have a hunger We all have a hunger We all have a hunger [Post-Chorus] And it’s Friday night and it’s kicking in And I can’t dress, they’re gonna crucify me Oh, but you and all your vibrant youth How could anything bad ever happen to you? You make a fool of d**h with your beauty, and for a moment [Verse 2] I thought that love was in the d** But the more I took, the more it took away And I could never get enough I thought that love was on the stage You give yourself to strangers You don’t have to be afraid And then it tries to find a home with people, oh, and I’m alone Picking it apart and staring at your phone [Chorus] We all have a hunger We all have a hunger We all have a hunger We all have a hunger [Pre-Chorus] Tell me what you need, oh, you look so free The way you use your body, baby, come on and work it for me Don’t let it get you down, you’re the best thing I’ve seen We never found the answer but we knew one thing [Chorus] We all have a hunger We all have a hunger We all have a hunger We all have a hunger We all have a hunger We all have a hunger We all have a hunger We all have a hunger [Post-Chorus] And it’s Friday night and it’s kicking in And I can’t dress, they’re gonna crucify me Oh, you and all your vibrant youth How could anything bad ever happen to you? You make a fool of d**h with your beauty, and for a moment I forget to worry [Intro] Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh [Verse 1] At seventeen, I started to starve myself I thought that love was a kind of emptiness And at least I understood then the hunger I felt And I didn’t have to call it loneliness [Chorus] We all have a hunger We all have a hunger We all have a hunger We all have a hunger [Pre-Chorus] Tell me what you need, oh, you look so free The way you use your body, baby, come on and work it for me Don’t let it get you down, you’re the best thing I’ve seen We never found the answer but we knew one thing [Chorus] We all have a hunger We all have a hunger We all have a hunger We all have a hunger [Post-Chorus] And it’s Friday night and it’s kicking in And I can’t dress, they’re gonna crucify me Oh, but you and all your vibrant youth How could anything bad ever happen to you?
