Hungry Child

Hungry Child
Begging like a hungry child
Waiting like an angry ghost
Fiendish for you
Dreaming never felt so bad
Loving never felt so wrong before
Wanting what you cannot have
Living with a sadness you cannot endure
Been trying hard to pull you back
All my life, it's momentary
A moment like a heart attack
Stopped my life, it's momentary

If only I could take a pill
But then I would dream of you
Bring nightmares too
Dreaming never felt so bad
Loving never felt so wrong before
Wanting what you cannot have
Living with a sadness you cannot endure
Been trying hard to pull you back
All my life, it's momentary
A moment like a heart attack
Stopped my life, it's momentary
Been trying hard to pull you back
All my life, it's momentary
A moment like a heart attack
Stopped my life, it's momentary
When I sing, I sing for you
All I make, I make for you
The night long, I work for you
'Til the sun comes streaming through
When I sing, I sing for you
All I make, I make for you
The night long, I work for you
'Til the sun comes streaming through
A moment like a heart attack
Been trying hard to pull you back
All my life, it's momentary
A moment like a heart attack
Stopped my life, it's momentary
Been trying hard to pull you back
All my life, it's momentary
A moment like a heart attack
Stopped my life, it's momentary

When I sing, I sing for you
All I make, I make for you
The night long, I work for you
'Til the sun comes streaming through
