Joan Armatrading Love and Affection lyrics

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 across 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
You know that's what I like
Once more with 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
You know that's what I like
Once more with feeling

Sing me another love song
But this time with a little dedication
Sing it, sing it
You know that's what I like
With affection, with a little dedication
Once more with feeling
You know that's what I like
