Affection (Is A Touchy Subject)
boxed up your emotions,
taped 'em up real good.
tucked 'em up in some closet space,
where i kinda figured you would.
stole the key to your closet,
intent on finding you out.
opened up your box,
and this is what it was all about.
seems that i don't love you,
like i used to do.
but touchin' and lovin' and kissin' and huggin',
ain't something we can't renew.
'cause baby affection is a touchy subject.
(repeat)
so my moves were premeditated,
i'd start with a kiss on the cheek.
and if that went well i'd give you a hug that you'd feel all week.
sneak up behind you quietly to get you all shook up.
and i'd open my bottle of love and pour you more than just one cup!
and then if i don't love you,
like i used to do.
but touchin' and lovin' and kissin' and huggin',
ain't something we can't renew.
'cause baby affection is a touchy subject.
(repeat)

A page of the history it teaches
Not a care, lived my life like a hurricane
Leaving everything along the way in pieces
Some may have cheered, some may have wondered
If I am flesh, if I am stone
Thoughts of you tear through me like thunder
You are the light that has led me back home
Take me to the river, baby
Wash away the lies
I've got no reputation living in your eyes
Take me to eternity
Let me bury this disguise
A southern boy has it harder sometimes
It's like you were climbing a razor
You were there
