[Verse 1: Kate Bush]
This chapter says
"Put it out of your mind
And give it time"

[Verse 2: Kate Bush]
The fine purple
The purest gold
The red of the sacred heart
The grey of the ghost
The "L" of the lips are open
To the "O" of the host
The "V" of the velvet

[Chorus: Kate Bush & Prince]
Of all of the people in the world
Why should I love you?
There's just something about you
There's just something about you
Of all the people in the world
Why should I love you?

[Verse 2: Kate Bush]
Have you ever seen a picture
Of Jesus laughing?
Mmm, do you think
He had a beautiful smile?
A smile that healed

[Chorus: Kate Bush & Prince]
Of all of the people in the world
Why should I love you?
There's just something about you
There's just something about you
Of all the people in the world
Why should I love you?

[Interlude]

[Bridge 1: Kate Bush & Prince]
Of all of the people in the world

[Verse 3: Lenny Henry]
The fine purple
The purest gold
The red of the sacred heart
The grey of a ghost
The "L" of the lips are open
To the "O" of the host
The "V" of the velvet
The "E" of my eye
The eye in wonder
The eye that sees
The "I" that loves you

[Bridge 2: Kate Bush & Prince, Kate Bush]
Of all of the people in the world
Of all of the people in the world
Of all of the people in the world

[Outro: Kate Bush & Prince]
Of all of the people in the world
Why should I love you?
Why should I love you?
Why should I love you?
Why should I love you?

[Outro: Kate Bush & Prince]
Why should I love you?
Why should I love you?
Why should I love you?
Why should I love you?

[Outro: Kate Bush & Prince]
Why should I love you?
Why should I love you?
Why should I love you?
Why should I love you?

[Outro: Kate Bush & Prince]
Why should I love you?
Why should I love you?
Why should I love you?
Why should I love you?

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.
