[Rufus]
I eat dinner at the kitchen table
By the light that switches on
I eat leftovers with mashed potatoes
No more candlelight
No more romance
No more small-talk
When the hunger's gone
I eat dinner at the kitchen table
And I wash it down with pie
I eat leftovers with mashed potatoes
No more candlelight
No more romance
No more small-talk
When the hunger stops
Never thought
That I'd end up this way
I who loved the sparks
Never thought my hair'd be turning to gray
Used to be so dark
So dark
[Dido]
No more candlelight
No more romance
No more small-talk
When the hunger's gone
No more candlelight
No more romance
No more small-talk
When the hunger's gone
When the hunger's gone
Never thought
That I'd end up like this
I who love the night
Never thought I'd be without kiss
No one to turn out the light
Turn out the light
[Rufus]
I eat dinner at the kitchen table
[Dido]
By the light of the TV screen
[Rufus]
I eat leftovers with mashed potatoes
[together]
No more candlelight
No more romance
No more small-talk
When the plate is clean
When the hunger's gone
When the hunger's gone
