Love and Affection
I am not in love
But I'm open to persuasion
East or West
Where's the best
For romancing
With a friend
I could smile
But with a lover
I could hold my head back
And I could, I could really laugh
Thank you
You took me dancing
'Cross the floor
Cheek to cheek
But with a lover
I could really dance, yeah
I could really move
Now if I can feel the sun
In my eyes
And the rain on my face
Why can't I
Feel love
Now I've got all
The friends that I want or a lover, oh yeah
I might need one more
But I think I'll just stick to the friends
That I've got
With friends I still feel
So insecure
Little darling I believe you could
Help me a lot
Just take my hand
And lead me where you will
No conversation
No wave goodnight
Just make love
With affection
Sing me a love song
But this time
With a little dedication
Sing it, yeah
'Cause you know that's what I like
Just make love
With affection
Sing me a love song
But this time
With a little dedication
Sing it, yeah
'Cause you know that's what I like
Just make love
