Lyrics Joan Armatrading

Joan Armatrading

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 can smile

But with a lover

I could hold my head back

I could really laugh, really laugh

Thank you

You took me dancing 'cross the floor

Cheek to cheek

But with a lover I could really move, really move

I could really dance, really dance

Really dance, really dance

I could really move, really move

Really move, really move

Now if I can feel the sun

In my eyes

And the rain on my face

Why can't I feel love?

I can really love, really love

Really love, really love, really love

Love, love, love, love

Love, love, love, love

Now I got all the friends that I want

I may need more

But I shall just stick to those that I have 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 another love song

But this time with a little dedication

Sing it, sing it, sing it, sing it

You know that's what I like

Once more with the feeling

Give me love, give me love

Give me love, love

Make love with affection

Sing me another love song

But this time with a little dedication

Sing it, sing it, sing it, sing it

You know that's what I like

Once more with the feeling

Sing me another love song

But this time with a little dedication

Sing it, sing it, sing it, sing it

You know that's what I like

With affection

With a little dedication

Once more with the feeling

You know that's what I like
