When i was a child Running in the night I was afraid of what might be Hiding in the dark Hiding in the streets And of what was following me The hounds of love are calling I've always been a coward And i don't know what's good for me Well, here i go It's coming at me through the trees Help me, someone, help me please Take your shoes off and throw them in the lake And i will 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 That i am ashamed to be running away From nothing real, i just can't deal with this I feel ashamed to be there Amongst your hounds of love And i feel your arms surrounding me I've always been a coward And i don't know what's good for me Well, here i go Don't let me go Hold me down It's coming at me through the trees Help me, someone, help me please Take my shoes off and i will throw them in the lake And i will be two steps on the water Do you know what i mean, do you know what i mean? I need love, love, love, love, yeah! Take my shoes off and i will throw them in the lake And i will be two steps on the water I don't know what's good for me I don't know what's good for me Do you know what i mean? Do you know what i mean?
