Stansfield, Lisa - Affection Lyrics






Feel the sun on your face and the wind in you hair
And a big, big love in your heart
So strong
Feel a hand in your hand and a whisper sweet and low
That says I love you

We all know what we want

Affection, it's a way of life
Direction, all of us know which way we're going
With our affection
Affection, may be big or small but know that
We can have it all with our affection
We know which way to go

Take a walk in the sun with the one you love
And a big, big love in your heart
So strong
And rest a little while, keep on smilin', smilin'

We all know what we want

Affection, it's a way of life
Direction, all of us know which way we're going
With our affection
Affection, may be big or small but know that
We can have it all with our affection
We know which way to go

Well, you could lay down and die for the one you're lovin'
There's a sweet, sweet love in your heart
So strong
When you're dancin' on the air, like you don't care
It's honey on your lips and sweeter to your fingertips
You know what we want

Affection, it's a way of life
Direction, all of us know which way we're going
With our affection
Affection, may be big or small but know that
We can have it all with our affection
We know which way to go

    I love this album. If heard her in boston. She is so honest. Enjoy most of her music...:)

  2. L.... C....

    Very Nice Track by Lisa

  3. S.... C....

    Good music has no preference or limitations. It can come from the most unsuspecting people. Lisa Stansfield and a host of other are a testament to this fact. Affection like All Around the World took Black folks by surprise. Lisa was official when she brought the house down at the Apollo in New York.

  22. R.... B....

    I was lucky enough to see Lisa Stansfield at The Ritz Theater (aka the old Studio 54) in NYC on this tour - killer band (straight from the studio), crazy back up singers, spit curl, beret and all that - ONE OF THE GREAT LIVE PERFORMANCES OF MY LIFE! During the break, when most bands go off stage and change clothes and recharge, she sat down on the edge of the stage and sang Billie Holiday songs to the audience - UNFORGETTABLE! Love me some Lisa!

    Fell in LOVE with this woman....

  32. E.... L....

    Lisa ...I love you

  33. O.... A....

    the voice is faultless,her songs are all hits, jams from the past.. what a blast they were in the club's and on the radio stations back then. Flawless, what a pity good music like this cannot be revived again. so opportuned to have witness it and the other likes in my. era

  34. G.... ....

    She really outdid herself on this tune - over the top, pure energy, fantastic voice, and hip instrumental. What a masterpiece !

  35. m.... M....

    This woman voice is sooo soulful I don't care if she is black or white she can sing an deserves to be on the list with the best of them she can sing all types of music very few can do that.

    m.... M....

    You are absolutely correct...CAN SING WITH THE BEST OF THEM...including Whitney Houston.

    m.... M....

    TRUE TO THAT

    m.... M....

    TRUE TO THAT.

    m.... M....

    Now, that is the only white singer that I can see in Teena Marie's bracket.

  36. P.... R....

    Rock in Rio 1991 Maracanã Stadium! I was there listening to this wonderful song !!! Lisa, I love you!

  37. C.... T....

    I played this CD straight through back then and still do now. Know all the words to every damn song on it.

    C.... T....

    Affection is an amazing song. I think it was actually out BEFORE "All Around the World" and no one had seen her at that point and we all thought she was black. So when she came out with AATW and we SAW her we were all floored. Her and Teena Marie are my favorite blue eyed soul artists.

  38. D.... E....

    i wonder what shy up to these day, she was my girl back in the day!!!!!!!!

  39. B.... S....

    Such a soulful sexy voice. Like most female artist back then.

    It was 25 years ago when this song came out. Now I am 38 years old. 1990 was the last time I heard it. Thanks 4 playing.

  58. T.... D....

    It was 25 years since I last heard it on the radio. I was only 12 years old.I was in Chicago. Now I am 38 years old. Living in New York City. It chills me and blows it off my feet. Thanks 4. playing.

    T.... D....

    My first time in New York, just after this album was released, I walked into the Burger King on Broadway by the huge vintage clothing store and they were playing this album over the speakers in the restaurant and all of the employees were dancing and working. This was the song that was playing when we walked in. It was a moment that I'll never forget. This album is a masterpiece, way ahead of its time, and there's not a mediocre song on the entire thing.

  59. T.... D....

    In the last 25 years, since l last heard it on the radio. I was only 12 years old when this came out. I was in Chicago. Now I am 38 years old in New York City. It chills me and blows it off my feet. Thanks 4 playing☆★☆★☆★☆★

  60. T.... D....

    It's been over 25 years since I last heard it. 1990. I never forget that song, because I was in Chicago when that came out. I was only 12 years old. Now I am 38 years old. Damn this was the shit. Thanks.
