I Need Affection 1915 'The Princess "Pat"'

James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 04 Feb 2004

Now while men marry whom they will
and women whom they do,
it's quite to be expected
that if she is neglected,
a wife will find admirers still,
and of them one or two
who'll help her pass the time
when she is blue!
So let me tell you something entre nous.

I need affection, Oh, so much!
I'm longing all the while
for one whose kisses I'm fondest of,
and only one could I ever love!
To see if he is fond of me,
I'll flirt a bit, indeed!
It lends a charm,
so where is the harm?
Affection is all I need!

I need affection, Oh, so much!
I'm longing all the while
for one whose kisses I'm fondest of,
and only one could I ever love!
To see if he is fond of me,
I'll flirt a bit, indeed!
It lends a charm,
so where is the harm?
Affection is all I need!
