Analysis of Love Sandwich



Caught between our connected eyes
Lies the tension that burns inside.
The break of dawn shines off your face
A way only angels could embrace.

1000 Suns could'nt compare the feeling
As to why you're so appealing.
We'll be together, old and saggy
Unless of course you get real naggy.
