Cloudbusting Lyrics by Kate Bush

Hounds of Love

1985

[Verse 1]
I still dream of Orgonon
I wake up crying
You're making rain
And you're just in reach
When you and sleep escape me

[Pre-Chorus]
You're like my yo-yo that glowed in the dark
What made it special made it dangerous
So I bury it and forget

[Chorus]
But every time it rains you're here in my head
Like the Sun coming out
Ooh, I just know that something good is gonna happen
I don't know when
But just saying it could even make it happen

[Verse 2]
On top of the world, looking over the edge
You could see them coming
You looked too small in their big black car
To be a threat to the men in the power

[Pre-Chorus]
I hid my yo-yo in the garden
I can't hide you from the government
Oh, God, Daddy, I won't forget

[Chorus]
'Cause every time it rains
You're here in my head
Like the Sun coming out
Ooh, I just know that something good is gonna happen
I don't know when
But just saying it could even make it happen

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
And every time it rains
You're here in my head
Like the Sun coming out
Look, your son's coming out
Ooh, I just know that something good is going to happen
I don't know when
But just saying it could even make it happen, oh
Ooh, just saying it could even make it happen

[Bridge]
Yeah, yeah, yay-yo
“We're cloudbusting, daddy”
Yeah, yeah, yay-yo
Yeah, yeah, yay, yo
Yeah, yeah, yay-yo
Yeah, yeah, yay, yo

[Outro]
Your son's coming out
Yeah, yeah, yay-yo
Your Son's coming out
Yeah, yeah, yay-yo
