Hounds of Love lyrics

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.

Hounds of love are hunting me

I've always been a coward

And I don't know what's good for me.

Here I go

It's coming for me through the trees

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

But I'm still afraid to be there.

Among your hounds of love

I feel your arms surrounding me

I've always been a coward

I never know what's good for me.

Here I go

Don't let me go

Hold me down

It's coming for me through the trees

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.
