Lyrics In The Woods Somewhere - Hozier

In The Woods Somewhere

My head was warm
My skin was soaked
I called your name 'til the fever broke
When I awoke
The moon still hung
The night so black that the darkness hums
I raised myself
My legs were weak
I prayed my mind be good to me
An awful noise
Filled the air
I heard a scream in the woods somewhere
Ooh, oo-ooh, oo-ooh
A woman’s voice
I quickly ran
Into the trees with empty hands
A fox it was
He shook afraid
I spoke no words, no sound he made
His bone exposed
His hind was lame
I raised a stone to end his pain
What caused the wound?
How large the teeth?
I saw new eyes were watching me
Ooh, oo-ooh, oo-ooh
The creature lunged
I turned and ran
To save a life I didn’t have
Dear, in the chase
There as I flew
Forgot all prayers of joining you
I clutched my life
And wished it kept
My dearest love, I’m not done yet
How many years
I know I’ll bear
I found something in the woods somewhere
Ooh, oo-ooh, oo-ooh
