Background

"Where My Lips Have Been" was written by Robert Charles Burns, Sandy Knox, and Don Huber and produced by Barry Eastmond for Warwick's tenth album with Arista Records, Friends Can Be Lovers (1993).[3] The sensual, downtempo ballad features Everette Harp on the saxophone.[3] In her 2011 autobiography My Life, As I See It, Warwick revelead her discontent with the song and its parent album, writing: "I hated this project. I did not feel the songs or production met the standards I was accustomed to. The one song that I still feel uncomfortable even mentioning is "Where My Lips Have Been." It was a lot – not a little – outside of the messages I was known to deliver lyrically, and I think it tested me to the brink."[1]
