The Hungry Years |
Girl we made it to the top |
We went so high we couldn’t stop |
We climbed the ladder leading us no-owhere |
Two of us together, building castles in the air-air-air |
We spun so fast we couldn’t tell |
The gold ring from the carousel |
How could we know the ride would turn out bad |
Everything we wanted, was everything we had |
I miss the hungry years, The once upon a time |
The lovely long ago, We didn’t have a dime |
Those days of me and you, We lost along the way-ay-ay |
How could I be so blind, Not to see the door-oor-oor |
Closing on the world, I now hunger for |
Looking through my tears-ears, I miss the hungry years |
We shared our daydreams one by one |
Making plans was so much fun |
We set our goals and reached the highest star |
Things that we were after, were much better from afar-ar-ar-ar |
Here we stand just me and you |
With everything and nothing too |
It wasn’t worth the price we had to pay |
Honey, take me ho-ome, let’s go back to yesterday-ay-ay |
I miss the hungry years, The once upon a ti-ime |
The lovely long ago, We didn’t have a dime |
Those days of me and you, We lost along the way-ay-ay |
How could I be so bli-ind, Not to see the door |
Closing on the world, I now hunger for |
Looking through my tears-ears, I miss the hungry years |
I miss the hungry years |
