Kate Bush - The Infant Kiss lyrics

Never for Ever

Written by Kate Bush

I say good night-night

I tuck him in tight.

But things are not right.

What is this? An infant kiss

That sends my body tingling?

I`ve never fallen for

A little boy before.

No control.

Just a kid and just at school.

Back home they`d call me dirty.

His little hand is on my heart.

He`s got me where it hurts me.

Knock, knock. Who`s there in this baby?

You know how to work me.

All my barriers are going.

It`s starting to show.

Let go. Let go. Let go.

I cannot sit and let

Something happen I`ll regret.

Ooh, he scares me!

There`s a man behind those eyes.

I catch him when I`m bending.

Ooh, how he frightens me

When they whisper privately.

("Don`t Let Go!")

Windy-wailey blows me.

Words of caress on their lips

That speak of adult love.

I want to smack but I hold back.

I only want to touch.

But I must stay and find a way

To stop before it gets too much!

All my barriers are going.

It`s starting to show.

Let go. Let go. Let go.

(Don`t let go!)
