I'm still remembering the day I gave my life away I'm still remembering the time You said you'd be mine Yesterday was cold and bare, Because you were not there Yesterday was cold My story has been told I need your affection all the way The world has changed Or I've changed in a way I try to remain, I'm trying not to go insane I need your affection all the way I'm still remembering my life Before I became your wife I'm still remembering the pain And the mind games Reverse psychology Never tainted me I didn't sell my soul, I didn't sell my soul I need your affection all the way They say the cream will always Rise to the top They say the good people Are always first to drop What of Kurt Cobain? Will his presence still remain? Remember J-F-K? Ever saintly in a way Where are you now? Where are you now? Where are you now? I say, where are you now? I need your affection all the way
