Lyrics Dog Days Are Over (Live BBC Proms at the Royal Albert Hall / 2024) - Florence + The Machine feat. Jules Buckley

Happiness hit her
Like a train on a track
Coming towards her
Stuck still, no turning back, hm

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?
'Cause here they come

And I, 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 have known better than that

The dog days are over
The dog days are done
Can you hear the horses?
'Cause here they come

Now if you've been coming since "Lungs"
You really just know what to do here, don't you?
Does everybody know? They're just gonna put their phones away now
And be with each other in this room
And then you know what to do, right? When the song-
Yeah, you've got it, you've got it

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
Here they come
Here they come
Here they come

Thank you so much
