Kate Bush - Night Of The Swallow Lyrics
The night doesnt like it.Looks just like your face on the moon, to me.And I wont let you doWhat you want to do.Its funny how, even now,Youre laughing.I wont let you do it.If you go, Ill let the law know,And theyll head you off when you touch the ground.Ooh, please, dont go through with this.I dont like the sound of it.Its funny how, even now,Youre miles away.I wont let you do it.I wont let you do it.I wont let you go through with it.Meet them over at dover.Ill just pilot the motor,Take them over the waterWith a hired plane,And no names mentioned.Tonights the night of the flight.Before you know,Ill be over the waterLike a swallow.Theres no risk.Ill whisk them up in no moonlight.And though pigs can fly,Theyll never find usPosing as the night,And Im home before the morning.In malta, catch a swallow,For all of the guilty--to set them free.Wings fill the window,And they beat and bleed.They hold the sky on the other sideOf borderlines.Meet them over at dover.Ill just pilot the motor,Take them over the water,Like a swallow flying to malta,With a hired plane,And no names mentioned.Tonights the night of the flight.Before you know,Ill be over the waterLike a swallow.Theres no risk.Ill whisk them up in no moonlight.And though pigs can fly,Theyll never find usPosing as the night,And Im home before the morning.Give me a break!Ooh, let me try!Give me something to showFor my miserable life!Give me something to take!Would you break even my wings,Just like a swallow?Let me--let me goWith a hired plane,And no names mentioned.Tonights the night of the flight.Before you know,Ill be over the waterLike a swallow.(let me--let me go!)Theres no risk.Ill whisk them up in no moonlight.And though pigs can fly,Theyll never find usPosing as the night,And Im home before the morning.(let me--let me go!)With a hired plane,And no names mentioned.Tonights the night of the flight.Before you know,Ill be over the waterLike a swallow.(let me--let me go!)Theres no risk.Ill whisk them up in no moonlight.And though pigs can fly,Theyll never find usPosing as the night,And Im home before the morning--But youre not a swallow!
