Hunger & The Hurting
       (C) 1991 N.Thomas /

       Console yourself in me
      
I'll stay right by your side
       I'll keep you warm and dry
       'Till the evening grows long
       I would lick your bleeding wounds
       I would mop your fevered brow
       I would feed you on my wine, one more time

               Nothing can disguise
               The hurting here inside
               The edges fray away
               When I see you in this way

       There is healing in my hand
       And I give it all to you
       I want to take away the pain
       To make you love again

       I would lick your bleeding wounds
       I would mop your fevered brow
       I would feed you on my wine, one last time
