I eat dinner at the kitchen table
By the light that switches on
I eat leftovers with mashed potatoes
No more candlelight
No more romance
No more small-talk
When the hunger?s gone
verse 2
I eat dinner at the kitchen table
And I wash it down with pop
I eat leftovers with mashed potatoes
No more candlelight
No more romance
No more small-talk
When the hunger?s gone
When the hunger stops
verse 3
Never thought that I?d end up this way
I who loved the sparks
Never thought my hair?d be turning to grey
It used to be so dark
So dark
No more candlelight
No more romance
No more small-talk
When the hunger?s gone
No more candlelight
No more romance
No more small-talk
When the hunger?s gone
When the hunger?s gone
When the hunger?s gone
When the hunger?s gone
verse 4
Never thought that I?d end up like this
I who loved the night
Never thought I?d be without a kiss
No one to turn off the light
Turn off the light
No more romance
No more small-talk
When the hunger?s gone
When the hunger?s gone
Verse 5
I eat dinner at the kitchen table
With my daughter who is thirteen
We eat leftovers with mashed potatoes
No more candlelight
No more romance
No more small-talk
When the plate is clean
No more candlelight
No more romance
No more small-talk
When the hunger?s gone
