Analysis of Glowing Like Your Lips
On these sands I stand alone
horizon far I see,
Orange glow is everywhere
sun then waves to me.
Once I stood their with my beauty
searching for our dreams,
Now my eyes look to the heavens
not all's what it seems.
Pretty lady what see you
in skies that glow so bright,
If my eyes were that horizon
I would hold you tight.
My heart holds your footprints
a soul that keeps your smile,
Still I feel your glowing lips
pray kiss me all the while.
