When I was a child, running in the night
I was afraid of what might be
Hidin' in the dark, hidin' on the street for,
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-o
It's coming at me through the trees
Oh help me someone, help me please
Take your shoes off
And I will 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 beat 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 loving
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-o
Don't let me go-o
Hold me down
It's coming at me through the trees
Oh help me, someone, help me please
And take my shoes off
And I will throw them in the lake
And I will be, two steps on the water
and do you know what I need
do you know what I need
I need a hey-yeh-ye-yeh-ye-ye-yeh
yeh yeh yeh yeh yeh oh
And 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
