Hounds of Love

It's in the trees
It's coming

When I was a child, running in the night
Afraid of what might be
Hiding in the dark, hiding in the street
And of what was following me

The hounds of love are hunting
I've always been a coward
And I don't know what's good for me
Oh, here I go

It's coming for me through the trees
Oh, help me, someone
Help me, please
Take my shoes off
And throw them in the lake
And I'll be two steps on the water

I found a fox caught by dogs
He let me take him in my hands
His little heart, it beats so fast
And I'm ashamed of running away

From nothing real
I just can't deal with this
I'm still afraid to be there

Among the hounds of love
And feel your arms surround me
I've always been a coward
And never know what's good for me
Oh, here I go, don't let me go

Hold me down
It's coming for me through the trees
Oh, help me, darling
Help me, please
Take my shoes off
And throw them in the lake
And I'll be two steps on the water

I don't know what's good for me
I don't know what's good for me
I need love, love, love, love, love, yeah
Your love
And take your shoes off
And throw them in the lake

Do you know what I really need?
Do you know what I really need?
Love, love, love, love, love, yeah
