Dog Days Are Over Lyrics

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
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?
Cause here they come
And I never wanted anything from you
Except everything you had
and what was left after that too. oh.

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 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
