| Trust me, it always turns out the same
|
| Affection has always been a little game
|
| Forgive me, it’s one I’ve never understood
|
| Love to me has been as bad as good
|
| I’ve been drowning in the water that you’re walking on
|
| And falling through the air whilst you float up
|
| Hey ya, hey ya
|
| I’ll kiss your eyes, I’ll wash your skin
|
| Hey ya, hey ya
|
| Forget myself and let you in
|
| Hey ya, hey ya
|
| 'Cause all I want is that cold affliction, your affection
|
| Affection
|
| And believe me, it happens all the time
|
| Affection can be as cruel as it is kind
|
| Oh lover, won’t you give me a sign?
|
| Love can be as deaf as it is blind
|
| I’ve been drowning in the water that you’re walking on
|
| And falling through the air whilst you float up
|
| Hey ya, hey ya
|
| I’ll kiss your eyes, I’ll wash your skin
|
| Hey ya, hey ya
|
| Forget myself and let you in
|
| Hey ya, hey ya
|
| 'Cause all I want is that cold affliction, your affection
|
| And fall down into sleep, into a fever dream
|
| Where I barely know what is going on
|
| Except I know that I want you, and I know that I need you
|
| And I tell you I love you again and again and again and again
|
| Hey ya, hey ya
|
| I’ll kiss your eyes, I’ll wash your skin
|
| Hey ya, hey ya
|
| Forget myself and let you in
|
| Hey ya, hey ya
|
| 'Cause all I want is that cold affliction, your affection
|
| Affection |
