"Egypt"

Never for Ever
Written by Kate Bush

Follow the Nile

Deep to much deeper.

The Pyramids sound lonely tonight.

The sands run red

In lands of the Pharoahs.

Their symmetry gets right inside me.

I cannot stop to comfort them.

I'm busy chasing up my demon.

I cannot stop to comfort them.

I'm busy chasing up my demon.

Oh, I'm in love

With Egypt.

My Pussy Queen

Knows all my secrets.

I'll never fall in love again.

I drift with dunes.

I whisper of the tombs.

They offer me Egyptian delights.

She's got me with that feline guise,

Got me in those desert eyes.

She's got me with that feline guise,

Got me in those desert eyes.

Oh I'm in love

With Egypt.
