Public Displays Of Affection

(album: Charango - 2002)

Therefore all to see
Selfcontained lovers
Welded orally
No run for cover
I'd join in the fun
If I had someone
But it seems I'm undone

These public displays of affection
Surely your love must be new
I can wait for my mass rejection
I'm always the first thing you queue

Tried to hold your soul
But I crushed your spirit
Why do I feel so close
when I can't get near it
I'm flooded with fear
and it don't disappear
But I'm still standing here

These public displays of affection
Surely your love must be me
So concious of my imperfections
I've never lost interest in me

These public displays of affection
Surely your love must be me
You're not sure over-protection
leaves me with nothing to do
These public displays of affection
Surely your love must be me
I've got no time for reflection
My savior is long overdue
