Analysis of Still looking

joanna scott 1967 (Birmingham)



Days get longer
your still missing
my soul mate
the man, I should be kissing

Nights are cold and dark
with out you there
my day dream
became my nightmare

No warm arms to hold me
no body to touch
no lips to kiss
yet I miss you so much

My soul mate
I know your out there
are you looking for me too
for a life to share
