Analysis of Love Floats



Everywhere I am you are with me
A day in spring illuminates
The breeze caresses my skin
A sign you are so real
Even though I don’t see you
Life catches fire inside
Blood moves effortlessly
Breathing becomes easy
And a gentle beat
Pulses in my heart.

In all the worlds I have traveled
You are my one fascination
Wonders galore unfold
Something only you
Opens the blue sky above
Heaven reveals beauty
Only you possess
My true vibe ripples
I wade into your ocean
And bathe on your shore.

Please take me to where you are
Immerse me in your water
Surround me with paradise
So I may undress
In your arms and kisses
For there is only one place
I swim freely as blue me
In your endless sea
It’s with you I let go
And love floats forever.
