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 thro' the trees
Help me someone, help me please
Take my shoes off and throw them in the lake
And I'll be 2 steps on the water
I found a fox caught by dogs
He let me take him in my hands
His little heart 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 yours arms surround me
I've always been a coward
And 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 shores 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, yeah -
your love
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
