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 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 you're teeth
 But 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
 It's what you don't do makes me
 I have to talk to you about affection
 I need affection
 ♪
 Somewhere alone is when I die
 On the banks of some canal, yeah
 The river bitter tears I try to hide
 And even fools will believe in lies
 And if every word
 You ever said were true
 You be my guide
 And I 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
 It's what you don't do makes a man
 Come on you, you know affection
 I need affection
 Why won't you dance with me?
 There's no more romance with me
 You don't think I see you
 But I see right through you, baby
 ♪
 Whoa, affection
 All I want is some affection
 All I need is some affection
 Affection, yeah, yeah, yeah
 You don't think I see you
 I see right through you
 You don't think I see you
 But I do
