Original was by Kate Bush. As much as I love the music of Pat Benatar, Wurhering Heights is one of the few songs from her that I have never listened to.
And, as has been emphasised, the only real way to know the plot of the book is to read it yourself. Others can tell you the basic plot, but all humans interpret things differently.
All I can speak to to that particular song, is that it sounded "egg heady" to me at the time. And at my teen years, I was intimidated by the complexity of the lyrics. Back then, regardless of mantra or motif, when anyone put forth work, music, or anything, including academics, i was always intimidated. I loved "Wuthering Heights", not because I understood it, I still don't to some degree to this day. I loved the mystery of it. It still had/has a Romeo/Juliet quality about it.
But no, sporry. I have found that I get the point of a plot better when someone doesn't throw me in the deep end. I have always hated that.

If I am understanding the plot it is basically two people who love each other but get seperated by family dynamics who want to be together but end up marrying other people. What I am not getting is the ending.
This is what comes of eating well-done steak with ranch dressing.
