When the hunger comes
Everybody gotta eat
I can't hear myself think
The people are wild out in the street
Can't you see the headlights
Of a thousand stranded cars
Burning on the freeway
Like a new constellation of stars
Won't you look at me now
I want you to hear me say
That I never loved you more than I
Love you today
The crowds are on the run now
Trying to cross the bridge
Shimmying up the telephone poles
Setting tents up on the ridge
Even the ocean is exhausted
The waves rolling high and slow
The beaches are teeming with seagulls
In the moon's eerie glow
Won't you look at me now
I want you to hear me say
That I never loved you more than I
Love you today
Come take my hand
I've got the money in a paper sack
Kiss the ground beneath you
We won't be coming back
I knew the storm was coming
Long and dark and hard
Everybody just laughed
While I was standing guard
Won't you look at me now
I want you to hear me say
That I never loved you more than I
Love you today
The jets are in formation
Streaking 'cross the sky
I always used to say
Well it's never too late to try
Some things are inevitable
You got to face up to the facts
If you can't get some sleep
Well you should try to relax
Won't you look at me now
I want you to hear me say
Well I never loved you more than I
I never loved you more than I
I never loved you more than I
Love you today
