Lyrics

"It's in the trees!
It's coming!"

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..

The hounds of love are hunting me
I've always been a coward
And I don't know what's good for me

(Well) here I go!
It's coming for me through the trees
Help me, someone!
Help me, please!

Take my shoes off
And (i will) 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 this

Among your hounds of love
And feel your arms surrounding me
I've always been a coward
I never know what's good for me

(Well),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 la la la la la ya yo ya yo
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 la la la la la yeah!
