Moving Lyrics
Kate Bush
Lyrics
Moving stranger,
Does it really matter,
As long as you're not afraid to feel?
Touch me, hold me.
How my open arms ache!
Try to fall for me.
How I'm moved.
How you move me
With your beauty's potency.
You give me life.
Please don't let me go.
You crush the lily in my soul.
Moving liquid
Yes, you are just as water.
You flow around all that comes in your way.
Don't think it over,
It always takes you over,
And sets your spirit dancing.
How I'm moved.
How you move me
With your beauty's potency.
You give me life.
(You give me life)
Please don't let me go.
(Please don't let me go)
You give me life.
(You give me life)
Please don't let me go.
(Please don't let me go)
Oh, You give me life.
(Oh, You give me life)
Please don't let me go.
(Please don't let me go)
You crush the lily in my soul,
(la-la-la-la la lily)
Soul
(la-la-la-la la lily)
Soul
(la-la-la-la la lily)
