True Affection Lyrics

When can we talk
With the face
Instead of using all these strange devices?
Seems like
You and I
Need to have a crazy conversation
Wouldn't be that hard
Get along so well
Sentence by sentence
It's a trial run
Let me show you how
Figure I can give you true affection

True affection
True affection
True affection
True affection

When can we talk
With the face
Instead of using all these strange devices?
Seems like
You and I
Need to have a crazy conversation

When can we talk
With the face
Figure I can give you true affection
Seems like
You and I
Need to have a crazy conversation

When can we talk
With the face
Figure I can give you true affection

Cover art for True Affection lyrics by Father John Misty

The singer is madly in love with someone who isn't living close to him. They talk and talk on 'strange devices', but all he wants to show her/him is 'true affection'.

Maybe the other hasn't grown up with the affection that can be given, maybe she/he got hurt badly in the past, so is scared. He just wants to talk, with the face, to give true affection.
