A great song from "The Dreaming".

Lyrics:

The night doesn't like it.

Looks just like your face on the moon, to me.

And I won't let you do

What you want to do.

It's funny how, even now,

You're laughing.

I won't let you do it.

If you go, I'll let the law know,

And they'll head you off when you touch the ground.

Ooh, please, don't go through with this.

I don't like the sound of it.

It's funny how, even now,

You're miles away.

I won't let you do it.

I won't let you do it.

I won't let you go through with it.

"Meet them over at Dover.

I'll just pilot the motor,

Take them over the water

"With a hired plane,

And no names mentioned.

Tonight's the night of the flight.

Before you know,

I'll be over the water

"Like a swallow.

There's no risk.

I'll whisk them up in no moonlight.

And though pigs can fly,

They'll never find us

Posing as the night,

And I'm 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 side

Of BORDERlines.

"Meet them over at Dover.

I'll just pilot the motor,

Take them over the water,

Like a swallow flying to Malta,

"With a hired plane,

And no names mentioned.

Tonight's the night of the flight.

Before you know,

I'll be over the water

Like a swallow.

"There's no risk.

I'll whisk them up in no moonlight.

And though pigs can fly,

They'll never find us

Posing as the night,

And I'm home before the morning.

"Give me a break!

Ooh, let me try!

Give me something to show

For my miserable life!

Give me something to take!

Would you break even my wings,

Just like a swallow?

"Let me--let me go

With a hired plane,

And no names mentioned.

Tonight's the night of the flight.

Before you know,

I'll be over the water

Like a swallow.

("Let me--let me go!")

"There's no risk.

I'll whisk them up in no moonlight.

And though pigs can fly,

They'll never find us

Posing as the night,

And I'm home before the morning.

("Let me--let me go!")

"With a hired plane,

And no names mentioned.

Tonight's the night of the flight.

Before you know,

I'll be over the water

Like a swallow.

("Let me--let me go!")

"There's no risk.

I'll whisk them up in no moonlight.

And though pigs can fly,

They'll never find us

Posing as the night,

And I'm home before the morning--"

But you're not a swallow!

I love this track. Surely one of her finest? I defy anyone who could find any track from KB which isn't magnificent.

I overlooked this track for a while, among the audio anarchy of the album The Dreaming (which is my fav KB album by a long stretch). What a gem this is.

The lyrics to this song are actually inspired by the book/film The Maltese Falcon by Dashiell Hammet!

The sun just got brighter, by a lot, it's cloudy here. Yes, some musicians call out the sun. We do it together.

Breathless and crying - danced to it for the first time. Played it all the time when I had the album, and became among the legions anxiously waiting for more.

I love Kate Bush and live in Malta, so wonder if anyone can shed light on the Malta reference ? The Maltese are terrible hunters so I'm just wondering if thats why

Let's give it to Kate! Kate, if you still have the voice, talent like yours can turn the table on the current singers. I'm in the U.S., but when I first heard your Wuthering Heights (though after Pat B.'s recording), I knew you were a step ahead with advancements in a vein of music that is art but rarely considered so.If your voice still can do it, DO IT! We're not teens anymore, but your voice cuts thru the years.

This is my favorite Kate Bush song. I think it's about overcoming fears; things that hold one back; that keep one from living fully. It's an internal dialogue where she is second guessing herself. The voice of doubt is fighting it out with the voice of the confident explorer. She wants to go where "they'll never find me posing as the night." This is poetic language describing a struggle to break free of a phobia. In KB's case, I think it's her fear of flying.
