Wuthering Heights
Kate Bush · This Woman's Work Anthology 1978 - 1990 [1999]
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
Bad dreams in the night
You told me I was going to lose the fight
Leave behind my wuthering, wuthering
Wuthering Heights
Heathcliff, it's me, your 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
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
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
Heathcliff, it's me, your Cathy, I've come home
I'm so cold, let me in-a-your window
Heathcliff, it's me, your Cathy, I've come home
I'm so cold, let me in-a-your window
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.
Heathcliff, it's me, your Cathy, I've come home
I'm so cold, let me in-a-your window
Heathcliff, it's me, your Cathy, I've come home
I'm so cold, let me in-a-your window
Heathcliff, it's me, your Cathy, I've come home
I'm so cold
Heathcliff, it's me Cathy, I've come home
I'm so cold...
