Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Life's a nightmare and I can't stand it
Since you turned me loose
And you know without your lovin'
My life has no use
I know I made mistakes now, baby
Thinkin' love would pull me through
Honey, honey, now my love starvin' heart is killin' me
Darlin', since I lost you
[Verse 2]
Love starved heart of mine
Killin' me
Wanting you more than before
Love starved heart of mine
Killin' me
Don't turn me from your door
[Verse 3]
I guess you know I thrown my pride
Right down in the dirt
What else can I do now, baby?
Won't you come take away the hurt?
Honey, honey, I got walls in my poor heart
Can't take it now that you're gone
Love starved heart of mine
Ain't gonna cave right in now, honey
The pain it much too strong
[Verse 4]
Love starved heart of mine
Killin' me
I seen you deal better dimes
Love starved heart of mine
Killin' me
So have pity on this heart of mine
[Verse 5]
Go ahead
Do it, baby
This love starved hear of mine
Life's a nightmare and I can't stand it
Since you turned me loose
And you know without your lovin'
My life has no use
I know I made mistakes now, darlin'
Thinkin' love would pull me through
Honey, honey, now my love starvin' heart is killin' me
Honey, since I lost you
[Verse 6]
Love starved heart of mine
Killin' me
Wanting you more than before
Love starved heart of mine
Killin' me
Don't turn me from your door
Love starved heart of mine
Killin' me
I seen you deal with better dimes, yeah
