Analysis of Love

Candice Sapp 1982 (Morgantown West Virginia)



You and I baby
Are one and the same
When ever we touch
We burst into flames

Something ignites
When we are together
The sun is always shining
No matter the weather

And when it does rain
We just start to dance
It's like we cant help it
We are stuck in a trance

Under that spell
Of love and romance
It was love at first sight
Or was it first glance?

I don't have much
That much is true
Yet I'm filthy rich
Because I have you.
