I always thought this song was about just wanting to be loved. There's a hint of irony though in how he says he does love her but then outright leaves her. He's using the phrase 'hungry' and the general message of the song is that he'll never be full. I think it's that 'doo-wop' sound that probably made this song stick out in the first place.
