And So Is Love Lyrics

[Intro]
And you, huh?
You do, huh?

[Verse 1]
We let it in
We give it out
And in the end
What's it all about?
It must be love

[Verse 2]
I give you my
I give you my
You give me your
You give me your joy

[Chorus]
We used to say
"Ah, Hell, we're young"
But now we see that life is sad
And so is love

[Post-Chorus 1]
Ooh, baby, live your life for love
Ooh, baby, live your life for love

[Chorus]
We used to say
"Ah, Hell, we're young"
But now we see that life is sad
And so is love

[Post-Chorus 2]
Ooh, baby, for the sake of love
Ooh, baby, for the sake of love

[Bridge]
And whatever happens
What really matters?
It's all we've got
Isn't that enough?

[Refrain]
Life is sad and so is love

[Verse 3]
You let it slip
You let it slip
I love you more
I love you more for it

[Refrain]
Life is sad and so is love

[Verse 4]
All for love
Just for the sake of love
You set me free
I set you free

What did Kate Bush say about "And So Is Love"?

I really wanted to get at the rawness of relationships, the way things just burn at people but never quite erupt and Eric just sensed that. The track couldn’t say it, it just had to unfold, holding the tensions until the voice goes up into the higher octave. He followed brilliantly, like it was a co...

How was the song recorded?

The track’s original backing is a sequenced 4-bar Fairlight pattern which was played to the musicians to give them a feel for the piece.

Usually we keep more of the Fairlight sound, but in this case it got scrubbed apart from the toms so it could all stay in strict tempo, so it could all be played...
