Paper Bag - Fiona Apple (费安娜·苹果)

Lyrics by：Fiona Apple

Composed by：Fiona Apple

I was staring at the sky just looking for a star

To pray on or wish on or something like that

I was having a sweet fix of a daydream of a boy

Whose reality I knew was a-hopeless to be had

But then the dove of hope began its downward slope

And I believed for a moment that my chances

Were approaching to be grabbed

But as it came down near so did a weary tear

I thought it was a bird but it was just a paper bag

Hunger hurts and I want him so bad oh it kills

'Cause I know I'm a mess he don't wanna clean up

I got to fold cause these hands are too shaky to hold

Hunger hurts but starving works

When it costs too much to love

And I went crazy again today

Looking for a strand to climb looking for a little hope

Baby said he couldn't stay

Wouldn't put his lips to mine

And a fail to kiss is a fail to cope

I said "Honey I don't feel so good don't feel justified

Come on put a little love here in my void"

He said "It's all in your head"

And I said "So's everything" but he didn't get it

I thought he was a man but he was just a little boy

Hunger hurts and I want him so bad oh it kills

'Cause I know I'm a mess he don't wanna clean up

I got to fold cause these hands are too shaky to hold

Hunger hurts but starving works

When it costs too much to love

Hunger hurts but I want him so bad oh it kills

'Cause I know I'm a mess that he don't wanna clean up

I got to fold because these hands are just too shaky to hold

Hunger hurts but starving works me

When it costs too much to love

Oh hunger hurts but I want him so bad oh it kills

Because I know that I'm a mess that he don't wanna clean up

I got to fold because these hands are just too shaky to hold

Hunger hurts but starving it works

When it costs too much to love hmm hmm
