Hounds Of Love

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 your 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 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 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 that I really need
I need love, love, love, love...

Alternative Hounds of Love

When I was a child running away from nothing
Heading for home
Now hounds of love are hunting
I've always been a coward
And I don't know what's good for me

Chorus

C'mon and run, run, run, run, run, run honey
run from the hounds of love
Run, run, run, run, run, run honey
Run from the hounds of love
Run run run run run keep running
Run from the hounds of love
They need love, love, love, love, love---yeah

Do you know what I really need?
I know what I really need
But I don't know what's good for me
I don't know what's good for me

Oh, I need love
Now hounds of love are hunting
I've always been a coward
And I don't know what's good for me
I never know what's good for me

Chorus

So run, run, run, run, run, run honey
Run, run honey
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run, run, run honey
Run from the hounds of love
Run, run--run from the hounds of love
