Gerry Rafferty - Love and Affection LYRICS

So long ago when our love was new

And the dreams that lovers dream still cast a spell

When we made love we were together more than we knew

And we gazed down deep into the wishing well.



Every day was a sunny day

Rain seems constant now

I can remember times when your love and affection

Turned my world around.



We separate like rain in a storm

And the wind blows all our words of love away

When we first met you were so loving, you were so warm

Now we meet like strangers on a lost highway.



Our love story was meant to be

All those days gone down

I can remember times when your love and affection

Turned my world around.



In deep blue, old and new

Distant voices call to you

Alchemy, mercury

Now you're free, and you can be who you want to be

I know that you will grow now we're apart

Talk to me when you're all at sea

I will keep songs for you here in my heart.



So long ago when our love was new

And the dreams that lovers dream still cast a spell

When we made love we were together more than we knew

And we gazed down deep into the wishing well.



Every day was a sunny day

Rain seems constant now

I can remember times when your love and affection

Turned my world around.
