No-one else did it so-- I did!
I always wonder where you are
I m right beside you, you re so far away
One moment you re not facing me, one moment you re not chasing me
I don t believe in good, goodbyes
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 rot your teeth
But I ve always been such a sucker for sweets
[Chorus]
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 have to talk to you
about affection
I need affection
Mmmhmmhmmhmm
[Same Chords]
Somewhere alone is when I died
On the banks of some canal, yeah the river bed of tears I tried to hide
Even fools will believe in lies
And if every word you ever said were true
You d be my God and I d just pray to you
[Chorus]
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 on blue
No affection
I need affection
Why won t you dance with me?
(Covered in gas and you couldn t catch fire)
There s no more romance with me
(I know there s someone else burning your eyes)
You don t think I see you but I see right through you, baby
[Chorus Chords]
Woah Affection! (Affection!)
All I wanted was affection (Affection!)
All I needed was affection
What you do? (What you do) What you do? (What, what you do?)
Affection!
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah. [x3]
You don t think I see you, I see right through you
You don t think I see you, but I do
