Lyrics

The Hunger

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

And so you went could not be found

Another wind in some other town

When no one knows your lover's name

How you rocked your body on the way?

That's the way we lose our fucking minds

Or what it means we leave behind

No one knows the longing and the shame

All those sorry, oh so, so sorry babes

And so it's over

The winds blows on

But something whispers from the storm

As we wander through the dark

The hunger of the heart

Something whispers from the storm

As we wander through the dark

The hunger of the heart

And that's the way we lose our minds

Oh all the names we leave behind

Though no one knows how much remains

For all we lost for the blame

Oooooooh

Oooooooh the world goes on..

Somethin whispers through the storm

Yeah something whispers from the storm

As we wander through the cold and dark

With the hunger of the lonely heart

And so it's over, the wind blows on

But there are whispers from the storm

As we wander through the lonely dark

With the hunger of our hearts

Oooooooh ...

Oooooohh the world goes on..

(Something whispers through the storm

Something whispers from the storm)

As we wander through the cold and dark

With the hunger of our hearts

Ahhhh aaaaah
