Affection


I always wonder where you are
I'm right beside you, you're so far away
Moments you're not friends with me
Are moments you're not chasing me

I don't believe in good goodbyes (goodbye)
'cause even when the roses die
There's still some thorns left in your side
It's like a funeral for the bride (for the bride)
And I know candy girls, yeah they just rot your teeth
But I've always been such a sucker for sweets

I need affection (oh, oh, oh, oh)
All I want right now is affection (oh, oh, oh, oh)
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 (oh, oh, oh, oh)
I need affection
Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm

Somewhere alone is when I die (when I die)
On the banks of some canal, yeah, the river bed, the tears I tried to hide
Even fools will believe in lies (believe in lies)
And if every word you ever said were true
You'd be my god and I'd just pray to you

For affection (oh, oh, oh, oh)
All I want right now is affection (oh, oh, oh, oh)
I don't mean to make a confession
Girl, it's not what you do,
What you don't do makes a man come unglued of affection (oh, oh, oh, oh)
I need affection

Ah, 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 (affection)
All I wanted was affection (affection)
All I needed was affection

What'd you do (what'd you do)
What'd you do (what'd you)
What'd you do

Affection
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, 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

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The All-American Rejects are an American pop rock band formed in Stillwater, Oklahoma, at the end of the 1990s. Their first EP was independently released in 2000, followed by a second EP, *Same Girl, New Songs*, in 2001. After touring with the EP, the band signed with Doghouse Records and their self-titled debut album was released in 2002. The album reached number 25 on the US Billboard charts and also did well in the UK, where it peaked at number 19. The success of the album was due, in part, to the single *Swing Swing*, which reached the top ten of the US Modern Rock chart and achieved good radio airplay. Other representative tracks include *Dirty Little Secret* and *Move Along*. Their second album, *Move Along*, released in 2005, solidified the band's success with the title track reaching number one on the US Modern Rock chart.
