Kate Bush Lily Lyrics

Lily Lyrics

Oh thou, who givest sustenance to the universe 
From whom all things proceed 
To whom all things return 
Unveil to us the face of the true spiritual sun 
Hidden by a disc of golden light 
That we may know the truth 
And do our whole duty 
As we journey to thy sacred feet

Well I said 
"Lily, Oh Lily I don`t feel safe 
I feel that life has blown a great big hole 
Through me" 
And she said 
"Child, you must protect yourself 
I`ll show you how with fire"

Gabriel before me 
Raphael behind me 
Michael to my right 
Uriel on my left side 
In the circle of fire

I said 
"Lily, Oh Lily I`m so afraid 
I fear I am walking in the Veil of Darkness" 
And she said 
"Child, take what I say 
With a pinch of salt 
And protect yourself with fire"

Gabriel before me 
Raphael behind me 
Michael to my right 
Uriel on my left side 
In the circle of fire
