"Why Should I Love You"

The Red Shoes
Written by Kate Bush

This chapter says

"Put it out of your mind"

Mmm, give it time....

The fine purple

The purest gold

The red of the Sacred Heart

The grey of a ghost

The "L" of the lips are open

To the "O" of the Host

The "V" of the velvet

Of all of the people in the world

Why should I love you?

There's just something 'bout you

There's just something 'bout you

Of all the people in the world

Why should I love you?

Have you ever seen a picture

Of Jesus laughing?

Mmm, do you think

He had a beautiful smile?

A smile that healed

Of all the people in the world

Why should I love you?

There's just something 'bout you

There's just something 'bout you

Of all the people in the world

Why should I love you?

Of all the people in the world

Why should I love you?

The fine purple

The purest gold

The red of the Sacred Heart

The grey of a ghost

The "L" of the lips are open

To the "O" of the Host

The "V" of the velvet

The "E" of my eye

The eye in wonder

The eye that sees

The "I" that loves you

Of all the people in the world

Why should I love you?
