15 years on and it still remains a classic ballad – one that takes me back to the mid 90s, a time when falling in love was like a headlong crash into a thorny rose bush. There could never be a way out without leaving a few scratches here and there. The only solution was to stay.
It reminds me of a time when waiting in anticipation of a phone call was suffocating and unbearable. When a simple first kiss melted away the rest of the world. When a hand-written letter was kissed before being sent and kissed after it was read. A time when a mere glance lighted a fire within or the flowery fragrance of an embrace lingered into the night.
A time when there was time for simple pleasures like listening to this song laying on a lover’s lap.
…Won’t you tell me is that healthy, babe?
A time when you fall in love over and over again. The 90s hmmm.
I loved this song too. I guess that's the beauty of adolescence and teenage: We can afford to be carefree and smitten by romance while later in life we become more mellow and burdened by the cares of this world and look for more settling relationships.
it still is like falling in to thorny rose bush! and i miss listening to the song...

A time where the time stood still, the rain embraced the moment and a kiss lasted a song. The gentle heat which burned the simple nights away in wonder some moments. yes falling in love is falling into a rose bush only to find that the bush will be cut into shreds at a toss of a coin..yes I've been kissed by the rose....
