Jon Brion - Paper Bag lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] Hunger hurts, and I want him so bad, oh it k**s Cause I know I'm a mess he don't wanna clean up I got to fold cause these hands are too shaky to hold Hunger hurts, but starving works, when it costs too much to love [Verse 2] 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," 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 [Chorus] Hunger hurts, and I want him so bad, oh it k**s Cause I know I'm a mess he don't wanna clean up I got to fold cause these 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 k**s Cause I know I'm a mess that he don't wanna clean up I got to fold cause these hands are just too shaky to hold Hunger hurts, but starving works me When it costs too much to love Hunger hurts but I want him so bad, oh it k**s Cause I know I'm a mess that he don't wanna clean up I got to fold cause these hands are just too shaky to hold Hunger hurts, but starving, it works When it costs too much to love, hmm hmm
