I think that the text has to appear before the form control rather than
after it. Those of us who are sighted will see the whole picture, ie,
preceeding text, form control, following text, whereas the speech readers
may read the text before the form control, then the user may stop the speech
reader to enter the information before the speech reader has had time to
read the following text.
