Rhapsody In Blue
Kate Bush & Larry Adler Lyrics

I spent a lot of my time looking at blue,
I spend a considerable amount of time thinking about the color blue.

The color of my room and my mood:
Sometimes my blue mood matches the blue walls of my room.

Blue on the walls, blue out of my mouth;
I am surrounded by blue and it even appears in the things I say.

The sort of blue between clouds, when the sun comes out,
I am captivated by the shade of blue that emerges from the spaces between clouds when the sun is shining through.

The sort of blue in those eyes you get hung up about.
I am fixated on and mesmerized by the stunning blue eyes that leave me in awe.

When that feeling of meaninglessness sets in,
During times of feeling like life has no real value or purpose,

Go blowing my mind on God:
I turn to have faith in a higher power to help me make sense of things.

The light in the dark, with the neon arms,
I see a ray of hope from the darkness, like the glowing arms of a neon sign,

The meek He seeks, the beast He calms,
God seeks those who are gentle and humble but can also calm those who are wild and untamed.

The head of the good soul department.
God is in charge of the good side of humanity.

I see myself suddenly
I imagine myself in a new way in this moment.

On the piano, as a melody.
I see myself as a harmonious tune being played on a piano.

My terrible fear of dying
The thing that frightens me immensely about life ending,

No longer plays with me,
No longer controls or haunts me.

for now I know that I'm needed
I realize that I have a purpose and am important.

For the symphony.
I am a necessary part of the larger whole or picture, like a musical symphony.

I associate love with red,
When I think of love, I think of the color red.

The colour of my heart when she's dead;
The red color of a heart that is no longer beating because of the loss of a loved one.

Red in my mind when the jealousy flies,
Jealousy can cause red thoughts and emotions to flood my mind.

Red in my eyes from emotional ties,
The emotional bond I feel toward someone can cause my eyes to flush with redness.

Manipulation, the danger signs.
Manipulative behavior in relationships can be very dangerous.

The more I think about sex, the better it gets.
I find that the more I think about sex, the more enjoyable the thought or experience becomes.

Here we have a purpose in life:
Sex is one of the reasons why we exist and have meaning in life.

Good for the blood circulation,
Sex can be beneficial for our circulation and overall health.

Good for releasing the tension,
Sex can be a helpful way to let go of stress and tension.

The root of our reincarnations.
Sex is seen as a fundamental part of our cycle of rebirth and reincarnation.

No wonder that I blue it!
It's no surprise that I made an error, given how much I am consumed by the color blue.
