happiness hit her 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
for your sisters and brothers
leave all your love and your longing behind you
can’t carry it with you if you want to survive
the dog days are over
the dog days are done
can 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 hit her like a bullet in the back
struck from a great height
by someone who should know better than that
the dog days are over
the dog days are gone
can you hear the horses because here they come
florence + the machine
dog days are over
