The Triffids - Love And Affection lyrics

Sweet sweet love and affection Aiming for my protection Sweet sweet hail and devotion Pointed by my emotion I called you by your name I called you by your name Like a baby crying for the milk of its mother Like a junkman scratching on a vial for ether I'm hearing Mary's voices in the middle of the night She said 'Come home soon, darling' 'You just hold tight' Lazy ocean hugs the shore Caterpillar eats the rose No exception to this law Circle drawing to a close Sweet sweet love and affection Aiming for my protection Sweet sweet hail and devotion Pointed by my emotion I called you by your name I called you by your name I called you by your name I called you by your name
