[Verse 1]
I eat dinner at the kitchen table
By the light that switches on
I eat leftovers with mashed potatoes

[Chorus]
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 pie
I eat leftovers with mashed potatoes

[Chorus]
No more candlelight
No more romance
No more small-talk
When the hunger's gone

[Bridge]
Never thought that I'd end up this way
I who loved the sparks
Never thought my hair'd be turning to gray
It used to be so dark
So dark
[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
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 out the light
Turn off the light

[Refrain]
No more romance
No more small-talk
When the hunger's gone
When the hunger's gone
[Verse 3]
I eat dinner at the kitchen table
With my daughter who is thirteen
We eat leftovers with mashed potatoes

[Chorus]
No more candlelight
No more romance
No more small-talk
When the plate is clean
When the hunger's gone
When the hunger's gone
