The sensual world, Kate Bush
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mmh, yes,
Then I'd taken the kiss of seedcake back from his mouth
Going deep South, go down, mmh, yes,
Took six big wheels and rolled our bodies
Off of Howth Head and into the flesh, mmh, yes,
He said I was a flower of the mountain, yes,
But now I've powers o'er a woman's body, yes.
Stepping out of the page into the sensual world.
Stepping out...
To where the water and the earth caress
And the down of a peach says mmh, yes,
Do I look for those millionaires
Like a Machiavellian girl would
When I could wear a sunset? mmh, yes,
And how we'd wished to live in the sensual world
You don't need words--just one kiss, then another.
Stepping out of the page into the sensual world
Stepping out, off the page, into the sensual world.
And then our arrows of desire rewrite the speech, mmh, yes,
And then he whispered would I, mmh, yes,
Be safe, mmh, yes, from mountain flowers?
And at first with the charm around him, mmh, yes,
**He loosened it so if it slipped between my breasts**
He'd rescue it, mmh, yes,
And his spark took life in my hand and, mmh, yes,
I said, mmh, yes,
But not yet, mmh, yes,
Mmh, yes.
what was that he loosened so if it slipped between her breasts?

yes and all the queer little streets and the pink and blue and yellow houses and the rosegardens and the jessamine and geraniums and cactuses and Gibraltar as a girl where I was a Flower of the mountain yes when I put the rose in my hair like the Andalusian girls used or shall I wear a red yes and how he kissed me under the Moorish wall and I thought well as well him as another and then I asked him with my eyes to ask again yes and then he asked me would I yes to say yes my mountain flower and first I put my arms around him yes and drew him down to me so he could feel my breasts all perfume yes and his heart was going like mad and yes I said yes I will yes."
I still don't know the answer to your original question. Maybe it's his penis.

Date: 2005-03-19 02:52 pm (UTC)I read about this in an interview when the song first came out - apparently she wanted to used the original text and put it to music, but there were copyright issues so Bush wrote a 'homage', and off they went...
I seem to remember all kinds of random stuff like this, I really don't know why.

Date: 2005-03-19 01:01 pm (UTC)the word, charm, probably also refers to the man's charm, as in his personality, his flirtations, etc, meaning that the man takes his guard down when he is with her, but should he notice, he'd "rescue it," but she'd already by that time caught his "spark," his true self.
In other words, I don't think it's his penis.
