Nocturne Lyrics

Nocturn

Kate Bush

On this Midsummer night

Everyone is sleeping

We go driving into the moonlight



Could be in a dream

Our clothes are on the beach

These prints of our feet

Lead right up to the sea

No one, no one is here

No one, no one is here

We stand in the Atlantic

We become panoramic



We tire of the city

We tire of it all

We long for just that something more



Could be in a dream

Our clothes are on the beach

These prints of our feet

Lead right up to the sea

No one, no one is here

No one, no one is here

We stand in the Atlantic

We become panoramic



The stars are caught in our hair

The stars are on our fingers

A veil of diamond dust

Just reach up and touch it

The sky's above our heads

The sea's around our legs

In milky, silky water

We swim further and further

We dive down… We dive down



A diamond night, a diamond sea

and a diamond sky…



We dive deeper and deeper

We dive deeper and deeper

Could be we are here

Could be in a dream

It came up on the horizon

Rising and rising

In a sea of honey, a sky of honey

A sea of honey, a sky of honey



Look at the light, all the time it's a changing

Look at the light, climbing up the aerial

Bright, white coming alive jumping off the aerial

All the time it's a changing, like now…

All the time it's a changing, like then again…

All the time it's a changing

And all the dreamers are waking.
