Between A Man And A Woman

Kate Bush

With her hand in his hand

They were both happy again.

You started to take sides

They started arguing

He said it was her fault

She said it wasn't at all

But the truth lies somewhere in the middle.



Where angels fear to tread you go rushing in

Well I had to tell you then

And now I'm telling you again

Stay out of this

You must not interfere

Don't you see this is

Between a man and a woman?



Every day and night I pray.

Pray that you will stay away forever.

It's so hard for love to stay together

With the modern Western pressures

I don't want to say it

But I had to tell you then

And now I'm telling you again



Stay out of this.

Oh, I know you mean to help me,

And I know you've good intentions

But stay out of this.

This isn't your problem.

Do not interfere - you are not needed here

Let the pendulum swing

Between a man and a woman

Don't you see you're in the way - between a man and a woman.

Every day and night I pray, let the pendulum swing

Between a man and a woman.

Between a man and a woman.
