desert rose

song: desert rose
artist: sting


There's some pretty descriptive imagery in this song, I particularly like these lines,

"I wake in vain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand "

"Her shadows play in the shape of a man's desire."



Heh, it just goes along with my previous entry about getting a guy to read those chick novels and seeing what they thought, seeing what a man's desire was. (I listened to the lyrics and thought to myself, well what d'we have here.) I can't remember where I heard this, but it was some basic advice to guys, which was, "Every girl wants to know two things: that you love her, and that you will always love her." I heard that and thought it was pretty true because after all the superficial requirements or whatnot, at the end of the day, well, we want the man to come back to us, eh? But what for guys, that I wonder.
