Afterglow Lyrics

Cover art for Afterglow lyrics by INXS

This song was mostly written by Andrew Farriss , the keyboard play and main songwriter for INXS. It's about Michael Hutchence, how it feels to love in his afterglow after he passed away, about letting him go. "The walls of my memory divides the thorns from the roses" is so beautiful. I find my memories do this too, I'll have a set of fond memories about someone that is seperated from the not so good tough memories and also from the pain of loss.
