Dog Days Are Over Lyrics by Florence + The Machine

0:15Happiness hit her like a train on a track

0:25Coming towards her, stuck still, no turning back

0:37♪

0:39She hid around corners and she hid under beds

0:45She killed it with kisses and from it she fled

0:52With every bubble, she sank with her drink

0:58And washed it away down the kitchen sink

1:05The dog days are over

1:08The dog days are done

1:11The horses are coming

1:14So you better run

1:17Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father

1:21Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers

1:24Leave all your love and your longing behind

1:27You can't carry it with you if you want to survive

1:30The dog days are over

1:33The dog days are done

1:37Can you hear the horses?

1:40'Cause here they come

1:44♪

1:50And I never wanted anything from you

2:02Except everything you had

2:08And what was left after that too, oh

2:16Happiness hit her like a bullet in the back

2:26♪

2:28Struck from a great height

2:32By someone who should know better than that

2:41The dog days are over

2:44The dog days are done

2:47Can you hear the horses?

2:49'Cause here they come

2:53♪

3:06Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father

3:10Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers

3:13Leave all your love and your longing behind

3:16You can't carry it with you if you want to survive

3:19The dog days are over

3:22The dog days are done

3:26Can you hear the horses?

3:30'Cause here they come

3:33The dog days are over

3:35The dog days are done (here they come)

3:39The horses are coming

3:41So you better run (here they come)

3:45The dog days are over

3:48The dog days are done (here they come)

3:51The horses are coming

3:54So you better run

3:58♪
