Kate recorded this song in 1982 and released it as a single in 1983 in France and Canada. The b-side was "Un baiser d'enfant", the French version of "The Infant Kiss". The song is also featured on the "This Woman's Work" box set.

French lyrics:

Je viens

Comme un chat

Par la nuit si noire.

Tu attends,

Et je tombe

Dans tes ailes blanches, la-la-la...

Et je vole,

Et je coule

Comme une plume.

Si les grands yeux de mon Dieu

Ne me gardaient pas,

Je te volerais

Ne t'enfuis pas!

Tu as des ailes,

Le pouvoir de me quitter.

Tu es tombe

Du ciel comme un ange, la-la-la

Et j'ai peur

Que le ciel

Te reprenne.

Si les grands yeux de mon Dieu

Ne me gardaient pas,

Je te volerais.

Je viens

Comme un chat

Par la nuit si noire.

Je t'en prie,

Je t'en prie,

Je t'en prie,

Je t'en prie,

Je t'en prie,

Je t'en prie--

Ne t'enfuis

Pas!

English lyrics:

I am coming

Like a cat

Through the night so black.

You are waiting,

And I fall

Into your white wings, la-la-la...

And I fly,

And I sink

Like a feather.

If the great eyes of my God

Were not watching (over) me,

I would steal you away.

Don't fly away!

You have wings,

The power to leave me.

You fell

From the sky like an angel, la-la-la

And I'm afraid

That the sky

Will take you back.

If the great eyes of my God

Weren't watching (over) me,

I would steal you away.

I am coming

Like a cat

Through the night so black.

I beg you,

I beg you,

I beg you,

I beg you,

I beg you,

I beg you--

Don't fly

Away!

Oh lord .... she has the capability to be sensual, without crudity. I wish, I wish, that some of our current crop of popular artists could understand that. Miley Cyrus? Need I say more ?

the late Benjamin Lo-Fi banged two small trophies together for part of the percussion track to this French fancy...although he doesn't use trophies on his own stuff...

Kate's French is decent here. It has an English accent ,especially on the vowels but quite clear.

Yes, that's Del Palmer on bass. Oddly, the copy of the single that I have has "Dreamtime," a variation of "The Dreaming" as a B-side. Here are the credits from the single's sleeve: Fretless bass, Linn Programming - Del Palmer Vocals, Fairlight - Kate Bush Engineer - Paul Hardiman Lyrics - Kate Bush, Vivienne Chandler, Patrick Jeaneau

Can't believe after all these years of loving Kate that this is the first time I have ever heard this song. Like finding a little known Beatles song (Inner Light anyone? :) ) Lovely tune.Short tho!
