[Verse 1]
I've pulled down my lace and the chintz
Oh, do you know you have the face of a genius?
I'll send your love to Zeus
Oh, by the time you read this, I'll be well in touch

[Chorus]
I'm giving it all in a moment or two
I'm giving it all in a moment for you
I'm giving it all, giving it, giving it, giving it
This kicking here inside makes me leave you behind
No more under the quilt to keep you warm
Your sister, I was born, you must lose me
Like an arrow shot into the killer storm

[Verse 2]
You and me on the bobbing knee
Didn't we cry at that old mythology he'd read
I will come home again, but not until
The sun and moon meet on yon hill

[Chorus]
I'm giving it all in a moment or two
I'm giving it all in a moment for you
I'm giving it all, giving it, giving it-giving it
This kicking here inside makes me leave you behind
No more under the quilt to keep you warm
Your sister, I was born, you must lose me
Like an arrow shot into the killer storm

[Verse 1]
I've pulled down my lace and the chintz
Oh, do you know you have the face of a genius?
I'll send your love to Zeus
Oh, by the time you read this...

Kate Bush

Kate Bush is an art pop singer and songwriter from Bexleyheath, a suburb of London, England. Her debut single “Wuthering Heights” hit number one on the UK charts in 1978, winning her a Brit award for best female performance, and propelling her into fame.

She went on to write, record and produce ten studio albums including her UK bestselling fifth album, Hounds of Love in 1985.

She is known for her experimental musical style and live performances, but has only toured twice – first in 1979 then 35 years later in 2014 – both of which have received releases in the form of either an EP, LP and/or video.
