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
Doo doo doo doo doo doo The hounds of love are hunting me Doo doo doo doo doo doo I feel your arms surrounding me Doo doo doo doo doo doo I've always been the coward Doo doo doo doo doo doo And I don't know what's good for me
Now here I go It's coming for me through the trees Oh help me someone, help me please
I take my shoes off Throw them in the lake And I'll be two steps on the water
I found a fox Caught by dogs He let me hold him in my hand His little heart It beat so fast And I'm ashamed of running away And nothing's real I just can't deal with this I'm still afraid to be
(Doo doo doo doo doo doo) Among your hounds of love (Doo doo doo doo doo doo) I feel your arms surrounding me (Doo doo doo doo doo doo) I've always been some coward (Doo doo doo doo doo doo) I don't know what's good for me
Now here I go It's coming for me through the trees Oh help me darling, help me please
Can take my shoes off Throw them in the lake And I'll be two steps on the water
I don't know what's good for me Don't know what's good for me I need love love love love
I don't know what's good for me Don't know what's good for me I need love love love
I don't know what's good for me (Doo doo doo doo doo doo) I don't know what's good for me I need love love love love
I don't know what's good for me (Doo doo doo doo doo doo) I don't know what's good for me I need love love love
Take my shoes off (Doo doo doo doo doo doo) Throw them in the lake (Hounds of love) And I'll be two steps on the water (Doo doo doo doo doo doo) (Hounds of love)
