Kate Bush: Trending quotes (page 8)

“Oh thou, who givest sustenance to the universe

To whom all things return

And do our whole duty
As we journey to thy sacred feet”

You were banging on the doors
You climbed up on the roof
Roof of the world
You were pulling up the rhododendrons

Run away, run away… We found your footprints in the snow
We brushed them all away… You're the wild man.”

And I'd get him to swap our places,
Be running up that road,
Be running up that hill,
Be running up that building.”

That are not addressed nor listened to.
Sometimes they blow trumpets.”
