Analysis of You
Joy Karimi Murungi 1995 (Kangeta,Meru)
My heart beats inside,
Everytime you sit by my side,
Maybe it's your cologne really,
I can't help but fall freely,
Walking back hand in hand,
Listening to the rhythm of our heart band,
And when you kiss my head above,
I pray forever will last our love.
