Song lyrics, The Kick Inside (1978), Context: Ooh, it gets dark! It gets lonely,
On the other side from you.
I pine a lot. I find the lot
Falls through without you.
I'm coming back, love.
Cruel Heathcliff, my one dream,
My only master.
— Kate Bush
Song lyrics, Never for Ever (1980), Context: Put out the light, then, put out the light.
Vibes in the sky invite you to dine.
Dust to dust,
Blow to blow.
— Kate Bush
Song lyrics, Singles and rarities, Context: What a lovely afternoon
On a cloudbusting kind of day.
We took our own 'Mystery Tour'
And got completely lost somewhere up in the hills. And we came up on a bee-keeper,
And he said "Did you know they can change it all?"
— Kate Bush
Song lyrics, Hounds of Love (1985), Context: On top of the world,
Looking over the edge,
You could see them coming.
You looked too small
In their big, black car,
To be a threat to the men in power.
— Kate Bush
Song lyrics, Hounds of Love (1985), Context: They look down
At the ground,
Missing.
But I never go in now.
I'm looking at the Big Sky.
— Kate Bush
Song lyrics, 50 Words for Snow (2011), Context: I was born in a cloud…
Now I am falling.
I want you to catch me.
Look up and you'll see me.
You know you can hear me.
The world is so loud. Keep falling. I'll find you.
— Kate Bush
Song lyrics, The Red Shoes (1993), Context: Feel your hair come tumbling down
Feel your feet start kissing the ground
Feel your arms are opening out
And see your eyes are lifted to God
With no words, with no song
I'm gonna dance the dream
And make the dream come true…
— Kate Bush
Song lyrics, The Kick Inside (1978), Context: There's something very special indeed,
In all the places where I've seen you shine, boy.
There's something very real in how I feel, honey.
It's in me.
It's in me,
And you know it's for real.
Tuning in on your saxophone…
— Kate Bush
Song lyrics, The Kick Inside (1978), Context: I hear him, before I go to sleep
And focus on the day that's been.
I realise he's there,
When I turn the light off and turn over.

Song lyrics, The Red Shoes (1993), Context: We take all the telescopes
And we turn them inside out
And we point them away from the big sky.
Put your eye right up to the glass.
Here we'll find the constellation of the heart.
Steer your life by these stars
On the unconditional chance
'Tis here where Hell and Heaven dance.
This is the constellation of the heart.
— Kate Bush
Song lyrics, The Kick Inside (1978), Context: You'll never know that you had all of me.
You'll never know the poetry you've stirred in me.
Of all the stars I've seen that shine so brightly,
I've never known or felt in myself so rightly,
It's in me…
— Kate Bush
Song lyrics, The Dreaming (1982), Context: Out in the garden
There's half of a heaven,
And we're only bluffing.
We're not ones for busting through walls,
But they've told us
Unless we can prove
That we're doing it,
We can't have it all.
— Kate Bush
Song lyrics, The Red Shoes (1993), Context: p>Just being alive
It can really hurt
These moments given
Are a gift from time.Just let us try
To give these moments back
To those we love
To those who will survive…</p

Song lyrics, The Red Shoes (1993), Context: The fine purple
The purest gold
The red of the Sacred Heart
The grey of a ghost
The "L" of the lips are open
To the "O" of the Host
The "V" of the velvet
The "E" of my eye
The eye in wonder
The eye that sees
The "I" that loves you.
— Kate Bush
Song lyrics, Hounds of Love (1985), Context: Is there so much hate for the ones we love?
Tell me, we both matter, don't we?
You, it's you and me.
It's you and me won't be unhappy.
— Kate Bush

Song lyrics, Singles and rarities, Context: I feel so sorry for you,
Believing because they control.
And of all the guardian angels
They chose me to save your soul!
Oh, I'm just trying to explain,
I'm a disbelieving angel.
— Kate Bush
Song lyrics, Never for Ever (1980), Context: Breathing my mother in,
Breathing my beloved in,
Breathing,
Breathing her nicotine,
Breathing,
Breathing the fall-out in,
Out in, out in, out in, out in.
— Kate Bush
Song lyrics, The Red Shoes (1993), Context: I don't know if I'm closer to Heaven but
It looks like Hell down there.
These streets have never been paved with gold.
