Reaching Out

Kate Bush
The Sensual World

Lyrics 

See how the child reaches out instinctively
 To feel how fire will feel
 See how the man reaches out instinctively
 For what he cannot have
 ♪
 The pull and the push of it all
 Reaching out for the hand
 Reaching out for the hand that smacked
 Reaching out for that hand to hold
 Reaching out for the Star
 Reaching out for the Star that explodes
 Reaching out for Mama
 See how the flower leans instinctively
 Toward the light
 See how the heart reaches out instinctively
 For no reason but to touch
 ♪
 The pull and the push of it all
 Reaching out for the hand
 Reaching out for the hand that smacked
 Reaching out for that hand to hold
 Reaching out for the Star
 Reaching out for the Star that explodes
 Reaching out for Mama
 ♪
 Can't we see?
 Reaching out for Mama
