She hates bein' on her own, but she does her best Empty nights create the hunger for love and tenderness She spends so much time alone She says it makes her wonder If she'll ever find someone who'll make her feel alive And satisfy the hunger He always reads a lot at night, but he's gettin' tired of it An empty house deepens desire for true companionship When he sees himself in the mirror, he don't look no younger He just keeps on fightin' the fear that'll he'll go through life And not satisfy the hunger Oh the hunger, the need for lovin' arms Oh the hunger, longing for contentment of the heart She picks up a second job at an all night diner Anything that she can do to fill the empty hours Then by chance her destiny he's there across the counter Their lives are changed by what they see in each other's eyes They recognize the hunger Oh the hunger, the need for lovin' arms Oh the hunger, longing for contentment of the heart The hunger Oh, the hunger Yeah, the hunger
