it is the act of affection, that puts my love into motion

(repeat)

never in this dream, have i been, so pleased, the time is almost here, and i’m ready (to get my share) oh yeah!

affection:

  1. a gentle feeling of fondness or liking.  “she felt affection for the wise old lady”
    synonyms: fondness, love, liking, tenderness, warmth, devotion, endearment, care, caring, attachment, friendship;

    warm feelings
    “the affection they share is obvious”
  2. archaic the act or process of affecting or being affected.
