At first I thought she must have meant to write "you _ARE_ here", but no, she actually sings "you and here". What does this mean? We guess that she means "Will now mean 'you' and 'here'" as in "the burning fields remind me of both you and this place." Other opinions? -- "See how the child reaches out instinctively to feel how fire will feel" - Kate Bush "Reaching Out" keving@gaffa.wpd.sgi.com
