Deeper Understanding - Kate Bush (1989)

As the people here grow colder, I turn to my computer

And spend my evenings with it like a friend

I was loading a new programme

I had ordered from a magazine

“Are you lonely, are you lost?”

“This voice console is a must”

I press execute

Hello, I know that you’ve been feeling tired

I bring you love and deeper understanding

Hello, I know that you’re unhappy

I bring you love and deeper understanding

Well, I’ve never known such pleasure

Nothing else seemed to matter, I neglected my bodily needs

I did not eat, I did not sleep, the intensity increasing

'Til my family found me and intervened

But I was lonely, I was lost

Oh so lost without my little black box

I pick up the phone and press execute

Hello, I know that you’ve been feeling tired

I bring you love and deeper understanding

Hello, I know that you’re unhappy

I bring you love and deeper understanding

Hello

Love

Hello

Love

I turn to my computer like a friend

Hello?
