[Verse 1]
Out on the wily, windy moors
We'd roll and fall in green
You had a temper like my jealousy
Too hot, too greedy
How could you leave me
When I needed to possess you?
I hated you, I loved you too

[Pre-Chorus]
Bad dreams in the night
They told me I was going to lose the fight
Leave behind my wuthering, wuthering
Wuthering Heights

[Chorus]
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy
I’ve come home, I'm so cold
Let me in-a-your window
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy
I’ve come home, I'm so cold
Let me in-a-your window

[Verse 2]
Ooh, it gets dark, it gets lonely
On the other side from you
I pine a lot, I find the lot
Falls through without you
I'm coming back, love, cruel Heathcliff
My one dream, my only master

[Pre-Chorus]
Too long I roam in the night
I'm coming back to his side to put it right
I'm coming home to wuthering, wuthering
Wuthering Heights

[Chorus]
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy
I’ve come home, I'm so cold
Let me in-a-your window
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy
I’ve come home, I'm so cold
Let me in-a-your window

[Bridge]
Ooh, let me have it!
Let me grab your soul away
Ooh, let me have it!
Let me grab your soul away
You know it's me, Cathy!

[Chorus]
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy
I’ve come home, I'm so cold
Let me in-a-your window
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy
I’ve come home, I'm so cold
Let me in-a-your window
Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy
I’ve come home, I'm so cold...

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.
