Analysis of Forever Yours



Today I saw you for the first time
It was obvious you liked me
I wasn’t quite sure why
But it was meant to be

As the night went on
It felt so right
Being with you
And the way you held me tonight

Loving arms around me
Your breath against me skin
The tenderness you showed me
Nothing else could ever win

I close my eyes but I could see
The way that you were watching me
The look in your eyes said it all
Holding me tight not letting me fall

Running your fingers
Through my hair
The chemistry and the kisses
We got to share

You got the engine burning
The temperatures boiling hot
The pressure starts to build
We give it all we’ve got

Out of control
For a little while
It didn’t matter where
It turned me on to see you smile

I wouldn’t change what I was feeling
Lying in your arms
You were a gentle man
Considerate and full of charm

You asked me for a number
So we could stay in touch
There seemed to be an urgency
I needed you so much
