Analysis of A Lover's Touch



Close your eyes
Surrender to memories
Of the darkness within
Feel the embrace
Like a lover's touch
Wait listen to
Sounds of the night
Concertos in silence
Dance with the moonlight
Feel the embrace
Of a lover's touch
The wind whispers
About things not known
Pleasures of darkness
Feeling the caresses
By a lover's touch
