Absence of Affection

You got your hands down under the table
You got your head right up in the clouds
You take your best shot when youre able
But your world dont spin right now
Its high time you found a lover
Its high time you made a friend
The world wont keep you together, babe
And your heart wont see no end
I say
And if everybody wants you
Tell me why are you so alone
In the absence of affection
Well take anything and call it love
In the absence of affection
Well take anything and call it love
You got your flash friends waiting to meet you
Theyre stuck like butterflies up on the wall
And in the night life no one can beat you
Ooh, you look so pretty its a pity just to touch you
But you never know when its gonna fall
You never know when its gonna fall
So you fake it until you make it
And beat your head against that wall
And if everybody wants you
Tell me why are you so alone
In the absence of affection
Well take anything and call it love
In the absence of affection
Well take anything and call it love
And if everybody wants you
Tell me why are you so alone
In the absence of affection
Well take anything and call it love
And if everybody wants you
Tell me why are you so alone
In the absence of affection
Well take anything and call it love
Well take anything and call it love
