Kate Bush - Night Of The Swallow lyrics
Your rating:
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!
