Lyrics
Starving WORDS & MUSIC
NOEL ESKEW
I walked up to the top of the Mississippi bridge and gave my heart a toss
A million one dollar bills fluttering down the wind could never repay the cost
Of what I gave up when I gave up on you
dear God now there?s nothing I can do
I know it nowIs it too late
You?re my angel and you?ve flown
And the days are long and the nights are longer
I walked past the feast , Now I?m hollow with hunger
And the taste of the tears so salty and bitter
is never gonna fill me up
Baby, I?m starving
Baby, I?m starving
I am starving for your love.
Can?t begin to say how hard it is to swallow all the pride and the regret
And in the heart of my hearts all I can do is pray that you could still love me yet
After what we?ve been through, after all I?ve done
Battling my demons and they haven?t won
I won?t give up
I can?t give up
I?m still in love with you
And the days are long and the nights are longer
I walked past the feast , Now I?m hollow with hunger
And the taste of the tears so salty and bitter
is never gonna fill me up
Baby, I?m starving
Baby, I?m starving
I am starving for your love.
And ignorance is no defense
We?ve got to face the consequences
We both made some big mistakes
NOW I?m ready. What will it take?
And the days are long and the nights are longer
I walked past the feast , Now I?m hollow with hunger
And the taste of the tears so salty and bitter
is never gonna fill me up
Baby, I?m starving
Baby, I?m starving
Baby, I?m starving
I am starving for your love
