“I was born in a cloud…
Now I am falling.
I want you to catch me.”
Kate Bush (1958) British recording artist; singer, songwriter, musician and record producer

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.
