“I spent a lot of my time looking at blue, 
The colour of my room and my mood:
Blue on the walls, blue out of my mouth;
The sort of blue between clouds, when the sun comes out,
The sort of blue in those eyes you get hung up about.” 

Symphony In Blue, Kate Bush, 1978

“You came out of the night, 
Wearing a mask in white colour. 
My eyes were shining
On the wine, and your aura.”

L’Amour Looks Something Like You, Kate Bush, 1978

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
