Lyrics

True Affection

When can we talk with the face Instead of using all these strange devices? Seems like you and I Need to have a crazy conversation Wouldn't be that hard, get along so well Sentence by sentence It's a trial run, let me show you how Figure I can give you true affection True affection True affection True affection True affection When can we talk with the face Instead of using all these strange devices? Seems like you and I Need to have a crazy conversation When can we talk with the face? Figure I can give you true affection Seems like you and I Need to have a crazy conversation When can we talk with the face? Figure I can give you true affection
