Lyrics

[Intro: Lily Cornford] "Oh thou, who gives 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" [Verse 1: Kate Bush] Well I said, "Lily, oh, Lily I don't feel safe I feel like life has blown a great big hole through me" [Pre-Chorus 1: Kate Bush] And she said, "Child You must protect yourself You must protect yourself I'll show you how with fire" [Chorus: Kate Bush] Gabriel before me Raphael behind me Michael to my right Uriel on my left side In the circle of fire [Verse 2: Kate Bush] I said, "Lily, oh, Lily I'm so afraid I fear I am walking in the Vale of Darkness" [Pre-Chorus 2: Kate Bush] And she said, "Child Take what I say With a pinch of salt And protect yourself with fire" [Chorus: Kate Bush] Gabriel before me Raphael behind me Michael to my right Uriel on my left side In the circle of fire [Interlude] [Chorus: Kate Bush] Who's on the left? Who's on the right? Gabriel before me Raphael behind me Michael to my right On the right Uriel on my left side Get the Devil behind us [?] In the circle of fire Get them off to the right [Chorus: Kate Bush] Gabriel before me Raphael behind me On the right Michael to my right On the right, wow Uriel on my left side In the circle of fire
