Hungry Heart
Navigating Life's Hungry Heart: A Musical Journey
Lyrics
Got a wife and kids in Baltimore, Jack
Acknowledging having a family (wife and kids) in Baltimore
I went out for a ride and I never went back
Left for a ride and didn't return, indicating abandonment
Like a river that don't know where it's flowing
Metaphorically likening oneself to a directionless river
I took a wrong turn and I just kept going
Continued on a wrong path without correcting the mistake
Everybody's got a hungry heart
Statement suggesting universal longing or desire
Everybody's got a hungry heart
Reiteration of the idea that everyone experiences desires or longings
Lay down your money and you play your part
Encouragement to invest effort or resources in pursuit of desires
Everybody's got a hungry heart
Restating that everyone experiences desires or longings
I met her in a Kingstown bar
Meeting someone in a bar in Kingstown
We fell in love I knew it had to end
Falling in love but foreseeing an inevitable end to the relationship
We took what we had and we ripped it apart
Choosing to dismantle what was shared or had together
Now here I am down in Kingstown again
Returning to Kingstown after the relationship's dissolution
Everybody's got a hungry heart
Restating the idea that everyone experiences desires or longings
Everybody's got a hungry heart
Reiteration of the concept of universal longing or desire
Lay down your money and you play your part
Encouragement to invest effort or resources in pursuit of desires
Everybody's got a hungry heart
Reiterating that everyone experiences desires or longings
Everybody needs a place to rest
Highlighting the universal need for a place of refuge or relaxation
Everybody wants to have a home
Expressing the desire for a stable and comfortable living space
Don't make no difference what nobody says
Rejecting external judgments or opinions regarding personal needs
Ain't nobody like to be alone
Emphasizing the discomfort of being alone
Everybody's got a hungry heart
Restating the idea that everyone experiences desires or longings
Everybody's got a hungry heart
Reiteration of the concept of universal longing or desire
Lay down your money and you play your part
Encouragement to invest effort or resources in pursuit of desires
Everybody's got a hungry heart
Reiterating that everyone experiences desires or longings
