Affection

I always wonder where you are

I'm right beside you, you're so far away

Moments you're not facing me

Moments you're not chasing me

I don't believe in good good-byes

'Cause even when the roses die

There's still some thorns left in your side

It's like a funeral for the bride

And I know candy girls, yeah, they just wrapped your tears

I've always been such a sucker for sweets

I need affection

All I want right now is affection

I don't mean to point your direction

Girl it's not what you do

What you don't do makes me talk to you about affection

I need affection

Somewhere along is when I died

On, the banks of some canal

Yeah, the river bed of tears I tried to ride

Even fools will believe in lies

And if every word you said were true

You'd be my god and I'd just pray to you for affection

All I want right now is affection

I don't mean to make a confession

Girl it's not what you do

What you don't do makes a man come unglued

Affection, I need affection

Why won't you dance with me

[Covered in gas you couldn't catch fire]

There's no more romance with me

[I know there's someone else burning in your eyes]

You don't think I see you, but I see right through you

Affection

[Affection]

All I want, someone's affection

[Affection]

All I need to, was affection

What you do

[What you do]

What you do

[What you do]

Where'd you go

Affection

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

And don't think I see you

I see right through you

You don't think I see you

But I do
