Lyrics

This girl I know don?t care to think about
The way her life is going
She treats a touch like it was a breath
But every breath we breathe is fleeting

She says, ?They?ll call me a slut?
She says, ?They give me such a hard time?

?This is the way I understand, this is the way I understand,
this is the way I understand affection?

This guy she knows is scratching at the door
She thinks this time will be different
She agrees and on goes the lie
For all she gives to him she still wonders why

He says, ?I?m not in love with her?
He says, ?But she?ll never know?

?This is the way I understand, this is the way I understand,
this is the way I understand affection?

So she goes to her favorite bar
Takes a sip of her favorite drinks
Her life?s slip sliding along
And she never takes time to think

She can?t hide for too long
Forever is much too deep
It?ll never give her the right
To see what she needs to see

This girl I know don?t care
This girl I know don?t care
This girl I know drove off alone
To where the sky had kissed the moon
And then like she?d seen on TV
She prayed and prayed
and screamed and screamed

She said, ?I?ve ever felt like this before?
She said, ?He treats me so well?

Ohhhh? affection
