man with the child in his eyes by kate bush would also have been appropriate but it doesn't rock half as much as this one.
********
you’re like a child with old eyes,
cynical and sensible and always
full of surprise.
you travel far and wide, looking
for the feeling that’s lost inside.
they don’t understand you, no,
until it’s too late.
with everything they’ve handed
you on a silver plate, are you hungry?
for a little more than what you’ve
had before
are you hungry? for a taste of life,
whet your appetite.
are you hungry?
now give me this mountainside, cool
water to lie beside. give me these two
strong eyes, to see the difference
between truth and lies.
give me this feeling. when you kiss me,
baby, every day and every night. that’s
all i need yeah. is everything else
gonna be alright?
are you hungry? for a little more than
what you’ve had before.
are you hungry? for a taste of life,
whet your appetite. are you hungry?
you’re like a sight for sore eyes,
lyrical and gentle, and borderlining
sentimental. you’re like a dream realised.
so why do i keep falling back to sleep?
i’m so serious and deep.
are you hungry? for a little more than
what you’ve had before.
are you hungry? for a taste of life,
whet your appetite. are you hungry?
are you hungry? for a little more than
what you’ve had before.
are you hungry? for a taste of life,
whet your appetite. are you hungry? I'll try being nicer if you try being smarter. |
