Act One - Hounds Of Love (Live)

[Intro: Bertie McIntosh]

"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

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 through the trees

Oh, help me, someone, help me, please

Take my shoes off

And 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 afraid to be there

Among your hounds of love

And feel your arms surrounding me

I've always been a coward

And never know what's good for me

Here I go , don't let me go

Never let me go, tie me to the mast

It's coming for me through the trees

Oh, 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, 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, love, yeah
