"Where My Lips Have Been" was written by Robert Charles Burns, Sandy Knox, and Don Huber and produced byBarry Eastmond for Warwick's tenth album withArista Records,Friends Can Be Lovers (1993).[3] The sensual, downtempo ballad featuresEverette Harp on thesaxophone.[3] In her 2011 autobiographyMy Life, As I See It, Warwick revealed 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]
