Dog Days Are Over

Florence + The Machine

Happiness, it hurt like a train on a track 

Coming towards her, stuck still no turning back 

She hid around corners and she hid under beds 

She killed it with kisses and from it she fled 

With every bubble she sank with a drink 

And washed it away down the kitchen sink 

The dog days are over 

The dog days are done 

The horses are coming so you better run 

Run fast for your mother run fast for your father 

Run for your children and your sisters and brothers 

Leave all your love and your loving behind you 

Can't carry it with you if you want to survive 

The dog days are over 

The dog days are done 

Can't you hear the horses 

Cuz here they come 

And I never wanted anything from you 

Except everything you had 

And what was left after that too. oh. 

Happiness it hurt like a bullet in the mind 

Stuck them up drainpipes 

By someone who should know better than that 

The dog days are over 

The dog days are gone 

Can you hear the horses 

Cuz here they come 

Run fast for your mother and fast for your father 

Run for your children for your sisters and brothers 

Leave all your love and your loving behind you 

Can't carry it with you if you want to survive 

The dog days are over 

The dog days are gone 

Can you hear the horses because here they come 

The dog days are over 

The dog days are gone 

Can you hear the horses because here they come
