"Deeper Understanding"


The Sensual World
Written by Kate Bush 







 As the people here grow colder


 I turn to my computer


 And spend my evenings with it


 Like a friend.






 I was loading a new programme


 I had ordered from a magazine:






      "Are you lonely, are you lost?


      This voice console is a must."


      I press Execute.






 



          "Hello, I know that you've been feeling tired.


           I bring you love and deeper understanding.


           Hello, I know that you're unhappy.


           I bring you love and deeper understanding."
 







 Well I've never felt such pleasure.


 Nothing else seemed to matter.


 I neglected my bodily needs.






 I did not eat, I did not sleep,


 The intensity increasing,


 'Til my family found me and intervened.






      But I was lonely, I was lost,


      Without my little black box.


      I pick up the phone and go, Execute.






 



           "Hello, I know that you've been feeling tired.


           I bring you love and deeper understanding.


           Hello, I know that you're unhappy.


           I bring you love and deeper understanding."
 







 I turn to my computer like a friend.


 I need deeper understanding.


 Give me deeper understanding.
