Default Read 'em and Weep

I don't know if I'm allowed to do this, but the Barry Manilow version of
READ 'EM AND WEEP has a different verse:

"And I´ve been dreamin´ forever hoping something would eventually come
I saw your eyes in the dark I felt your kiss on my lips
And I traced your body in the air until the bodies were numb"

READ 'EM is, by far, the most arousing ML / JS song
I've yet to hear -

I agree it's a very arousing song. The references to "the magic our bodies have made" and "the memories still alive in our bed" are really lovely.

Excuse me while I go and take a cold shower .....

What does arousing mean?

All those promises we promised to keep, they won't be kept anymore.

it is my favorite Jim Steinman line.

Here is Auntie Sapphire's explanation of arousing: it means awakening or stimulating and usually refers to sexual desire.

Yes, that is a really lovely line. I can see why it's your favourite Bart.
