Analysis of Wings Of Amorous Liberty
I fly to new heights with angel wings
A sacred place to me they bring
I hover at the very Golden Gates
To peek in Paradise at the grates
My hand briskly runs through your hair
As the spirits of love dance in the air
My cup of heart in your hands is safe and sound
In a rosy garden, caressing is bound
In lustful indulgence we dare to step
The dark forbidden sins we seek at dark depths
When everything in this most sacred place is free
None could know such Amorous Liberty
You move yourself in graceful majesty
No one else could know how good it could be
Entrancing waters soon form a flood
Breaking through the barrier, just as the roses begin to bud
Some do not know the art to make
Such innocence, so quietly, each other we take
As in this place we are forever free
Free to love with our Wings of Amorous Liberty
