[Verse 1]
Warm and soothing
That's how I remember home
Walking into arms through the back door
Hearing voices I know well and long for

[Verse 2]
Cold and boozy
Our holiday in the Alps
Sitting in the lobby, mostly smoking
Choking on the woozy afternoon

[Chorus]
I'm reeling in the music and I've only had a few
And I'm afraid by the way we grow old
My darling

[Verse 3]
Abrupt, too moody
You're making our party list
I remember sulking on the sofa
For most of the winter we were strangers

[Verse 4]
Just one more to ease the ache
Before the night takes me
When you stay asleep on your side of the bed
Don't look at me, don't look at you

[Chorus]
I'm reeling in the music and I've only had a few
And I'm afraid by the way we grow old
My darling

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.
