Affectionate

I don’t ever think about you

Don’t buy anything you hear

And I can have a drink without you

And I won’t end up calling you in tears

I don’t have any pictures of you

Still saved in folders on my phone

And since I’m never thinking of you

I’m doing wonderful alone

I’m doing wonderful alone

I’m doing wonderful alone

I’ll tell you all about the weekend

And how I spend it all with other boys

You tell me it’d be nice to meet them

Without a bit of envy in your voice

And I won’t ever write you letters

So I don’t have a single thing to burn

And since I’m doing fine, I’m better

And I won’t have to sit and wait my turn

Affectionate and wise, you listen

Give me good advice I’ll follow

It’s definitely my decision

I’m not missing anything at all

It’s never “want” and only “can’t”

So while you hold my lonely hands, you’ll know

I hate the taste of soap and you’re a waste of hope

And I don’t ever hear your laughter

When I think about our little inside jokes

And I don’t ever see your cats’ fur on me

Or buy the kind of cigarettes you smoke

And I won’t ever sit impatient

And dream of, baby, when you’re gonna call

It’s only your imagination

'Cuz I don’t ever think of you at all

'Cuz I don’t ever think of you at all

Affectionate and wise, you listen

Give me good advice I’ll follow

It’s definitely my decision

I’m not missing anything at all

It’s never “want” and only “can’t”

So while you hold my lonely hands, you’ll know

I hate the taste of soap and you’re a waste of hope

It’s never “want” and only “can’t”

So while you hold my lonely hands, you’ll know

I hate the taste of soap and you’re a waste of hope
