Della Mae - Hounds lyrics

Where do you go when the light is low When your ship is sinking When the storm explodes When your heart it lingers On one sad kiss When the sun is red Through the mist I've sailed with "The Anne" For twenty years From the blue of the Indies To the waters of Wales Now she is swollen Her sails are torn The water is rising Together we mourn And the hounds of heaven rise From their place by the fire They're chasing me down But it ain't my time They're chasing me down But it ain't my time Strange how you see Your life complete In the few moments Before you greet The force that made the ribbon of sky That holds us up In the darkest night And the hounds of heaven rise From their place by the fire They're chasing me down But it ain't my time They're chasing me down But it ain't my time I am a seeker of fortune I am an honest man I'm tied to my morals By a steady hand I'll bow my head Into the sea Let the waves Wash over me And the hounds of heaven rise From their place by the fire They're chasing me down But it ain't my time They're chasing me down But it ain't my time
