-- | LYRICS |--

Oh, can you hear her-a-weeping?
Crying his name on the moors
Though he was cruel like the Winter
She clung like flowers to thorns

They say she walks there forever
Wretched and lost on the moors
Conjuring storms with her temper
Rattling his windows and doors

Cathy, Cathy
Out there alone
Calling, calling
Out for her soul

They loved as wild as the weather
Deathless as rocks on the moor
He willed her ghost back forever
Haunting his windows and doors

Cathy, Cathy
Out there alone
Calling, calling
Out for her soul

"She clung like flowers to thorns..." Gosh the poetry in just that one line! <3

[martythetickler]

I've never read, or seen any adaptation of, Wuthering Heights, but if my mother's review is anything to go by, I think Emily Brontë would be crying with joy at this number.

[loridragon]

This sounds perfectly mournful. The wavering violins behind the chorus give an eerie vibe that fits so well with the story.

[mariachatzinikolau]

The beginning creeped me out and I love it! I felt all types of emotions in not even 4 minutes. The harmonies are perfect!! 🖤

[paulmccormick]

I love the way your voice creates emotions for all your songs. Amazing lyrics and voice here! Your vocal line calling "Cathy, Cathy..." is perfect! ❤️

[Kabbaway]

Thank you for this! My fiancé and I bonded over Kate Bush’s Wuthering Heights, so we both enjoyed your song based on the characters (from the book Bush’s song was based on)… very haunting and very Karliene 😊

[TimeandMonotony]

So beautiful, and you captured the Gothic atmosphere of the book so well!
Also I literally just ordered a CD of Bernard Herrmann's Wuthering Heights opera yesterday and then I got this notification today!! How did you know I had WH on my mind?!

[darxhart]

I love Wuthering Heights, it’s my favorite book! I’m so excited to have happened to wake up and see this with a few minutes to spare! Cant wait to listen

[simone]

Hauntingly beautiful - yes, indeed, these are the perfect words to describe your latest masterpiece, Karliene, this fresh, soulful retelling of WH. The emotion in your beautiful voice pierced and at the same time, embraced my heart. Simply marvellous! Bravo!

[randomvideosbymark]

Such a hauntingly beautiful song and performance with your stunningly gorgeous voice that captivates to no

[mimidragon]

This song is the quote ‘you say I killed you. Haunt me then’ brought to life and I love it.

[HammersOfJustice]

So beautiful. I love Wuthering heights. Saw the notification with just over a minute to spare and dropped everything to go outside and listen away from work noise.

[Iceis_Phoenix]

I listened to Wuthering Heights yesterday on my evening walk now this is presented to me. It feels surreal. 🌿

I love you Karliene 🌹

It's a crime that you haven't reached 10 million subscribers yet

[Jackmack]

Hauntingly beautiful thank you, and I too love Wuthering Heights. The Bronte sisters (and Branwell) were born in the village I grew up in before moving a few miles away to Haworth.

[goldenlore]

Love this song and love Wuthering Heights 🖤🤍

[rooro]

This song is pure beauty and emotion, I love it ❤️ I can really feel Cathy's loneliness and bewilderment!

[TheBlueSascha]

This has the vibe of the entire Gloom EP for some reason. I love it!!!

[GustavoSteiner]

This is hauntingly gorgeous! Getting chills with these beautiful harmonies and melodic lines. =D

[delilahearnshaw]
