|
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... |
|
Now hounds of love are hunting. |
|
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, |
|
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. |
|
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 your love love love love love, yeah! |
|
Take your shoes off |
|
And throw them in the lake! |
|
Do you know what I really need? |
|
Do you know what I really need? |
|
I need love love love love love, yeah! |
