Frasi di Kate Bush

pagina 10

“I am a rocket
On fire.
Look at me go, with my tail on fire…”

“Bad dreams in the night.
They told me I was going to lose the fight,
Leave behind my wuthering, wuthering
Wuthering Heights.”

“One of the band told me last night
That music is all that he's got in his life.
So where does it go?
Surely not with his soul.
Will all of his licks and his R'n'B
Blow away?”

“Oh! England, my Lionheart!
Dropped from my black Spitfire to my funeral barge.
Give me one kiss in apple-blossom.
Give me one wish, and I'd be wassailing
In the orchard, my English rose,
Or with my shepherd, who'll bring me home.”

“All is revealed
Not only women bleed.”

“I'm giving it all in a moment or two.
I'm giving it all in a moment, for you.”

“Give me the Banshees for B. V. s.”

“I know it works for me.
As we cross the bridge — the burning bridge —
With flames behind us,
We front the line.
It's you and me, baby, against the world.”

“The soul cries out
Hear a woman singing
Don't want your bullshit, yeah
Just want your sexuality.
Don't want excuses, yeah
Write me your poetry in motion
Write it just for me, yeah
And sign it with a kiss.”

“Ooh, he's here again,
The man with the child in his eyes.”

“Emma's come down.
She's stopped the light
Shining out of her eyes.”

“You might not, not think so now,
But just you wait and see — someone will come to help you.”

“Have you ever seen a picture
Of Jesus laughing?
Mmm, do you think
He had a beautiful smile?
A smile that healed.”

“All the time it's a changing
And all the dreamers are waking.”

“Well we think you'd better wake up capt'n
There's something happen'n up ahead
We've never seen anything like it
We've never seen anything like it before.”

“Who said anything about it hurting?
It's gonna be beautiful
It's gonna be wonderful
It's gonna be paradise.”

“Reaching out for that hand to hold.
Reaching out for the Star.
Reaching out for the Star that explodes.
Reaching out for Mama.”

“This kicking here inside
Makes me leave you behind.
No more under the quilt
To keep you warm.
Your sister I was born.
You must lose me like an arrow,
Shot into the killer storm.”

“Ooh, James, are you selling your soul to a cold gun?”

“We're gonna be laughing about this
We're gonna be dancing around
It's gonna be so good now.”

“He does love his numbers
And they run, they run, they run him
In a great big circle
In a circle of infinity
3.14159 26535897932 3846 264 338 3279…”

“Every sleepy light
Must say goodbye
To the day before it dies
In a sea of honey
A sky of honey
Keep us close to your heart
So if the skies turn dark
We may live on in
Comets and stars.”

“Hammer Horror, Hammer Horror,
Won't leave me alone.
The first time in my life,
I leave the lights on
To ease my soul.”

“Some say that knowledge is something that you never have.
Some say that knowledge is something sat in your lap.
Some say that heaven is hell.
Some say that hell is heaven.”

“I question your innocence!
Help this blackbird!
She's a witch!
There's a stone around my leg.”

“We let it in
We give it out
And in the end
What's it all about?
It must be love.”

“See how the child reaches out instinctively
To feel how fire will feel.
See how the man reaches out instinctively
For what he cannot have.
The pull and the push of it all.”

“And I can hear my mother saying
"Every old sock meets an old shoe"
Isn't that a great saying?”

“Oh will you come with us
To find the song of the oil and the brush?”
