The sensual world Lyrics by Kate Bush

The sensual world Lyrics

    Mmh, yes,

    Then I'd taken the kiss of seedcake back from his mouth
    Going deep South, go down, mmh, yes,
    Took six big wheels and rolled our bodies
    Off of Howth Head and into the flesh, mmh, yes,

    He said I was a flower of the mountain, yes,
    But now I've powers o'er a woman's body, yes.

    Stepping out of the page into the sensual world.
    Stepping out...

    To where the water and the earth caress
    And the down of a peach says mmh, yes,
    Do I look for those millionaires
    Like a Machiavellian girl would
    When I could wear a sunset? mmh, yes,

    And how we'd wished to live in the sensual world
    You don't need words--just one kiss, then another.

    Stepping out of the page into the sensual world
    Stepping out, off the page, into the sensual world.

    And then our arrows of desire rewrite the speech, mmh, yes,
    And then he whispered would I, mmh, yes,
    Be safe, mmh, yes, from mountain flowers?
    And at first with the charm around him, mmh, yes,
    He loosened it so if it slipped between my breasts
    He'd rescue it, mmh, yes,
    And his spark took life in my hand and, mmh, yes,
    I said, mmh, yes,
    But not yet, mmh, yes,
    Mmh, yes.
