[Verse 1]

Affection, why must he withhold his affections?

Just when I'm in need

Affection, I'd give anything for his touch

So easily I'd admit defeat

[Chorus]

He needs space, I know

He needs time, I'd give anything

You'll never be enough, said never

He'll never be everything, I need you, though

[Verse 2]

Affection, I must hide away

My affection in secrecy

[Bridge]

But when I'm down on my luck

I strike gold in the night

And I watch it glow all mine

Life ruiner

Ruiner of worlds

[Outro]

Life ruiner

Life ruiner

Life ruiner

Ruiner of worlds

Ooh, he needs space, I know

He needs time, I'd give anything

You'll never be enough, said never

He'll never be everything, I need you though
