Yearned (for) (8)
(Another definition for craved that I've seen is " 'Desired, longed for (6)'".)
'yearned for' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for pined that I've seen before include "Languished, yearned" , "Longed; wasted (away)" , "Starved" , "Became ill with longing" .)
