boxed up your emotions,
taped 'em up real good
tucked 'em up in some closet space,
where i kinda figured you would
stole the key to your closet,
intent on finding you out
opened up your box,
and this is what it was all about

seems that i don't love you,
like i used to do
but touchin' and lovin' and kissin' and huggin',
ain't something we can't renew

'cause baby affection is a touchy subject

(repeat)

so my moves were premeditated,
i'd start with a kiss on the cheek
and if that went well i'd give you a hug that you'd feel all week
sneak up behind you quietly to get you all shook up
and i'd open my bottle of love and pour you more than just one cup!

and then if i don't love you,
like i used to do
but touchin' and lovin' and kissin' and huggin',
ain't something we can't renew

'cause baby affection is a touchy subject

(repeat)
