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
Take my shoes off
And throw them in the lake
And i'll be two steps on the water
And i'll be two steps on the water
Take my shoes off
And throw them in the lake
And i'll be two steps on the water
