[Verse 1]
Fog on the hedgerow
Cool grey air
Robin on a fence post
Staring like a dare
Fox in the bramble
Tail held high
Blackbird gossip in the pale blue sky
[Chorus]
We’re running like hares under the moon
Heartbeat racing
Too wild
Too soon
Owls drawing circles in the silver light
Britain’s little secrets waking in the night
(Hey, hey) hares under the moon
(Hey, hey) dancing out of tune
In the fields where the shadows bloom
We’re running like hares under the moon
[Verse 2]
Badger on the hillside
Stripy face
Hedgehog shuffling at a sleepy pace
Pipistrelle zig-zag
Tracing sparks
Water vole ripple at the river’s dark
[Chorus]
We’re running like hares under the moon
Heartbeat racing
Too wild
Too soon
Owls drawing circles in the silver light
Britain’s little secrets waking in the night
(Hey, hey) hares under the moon
(Hey, hey) dancing out of tune
In the fields where the shadows bloom
We’re running like hares under the moon
[Bridge]
Glow worms flicker like an old arcade
Deer step soft where the tracks are laid
I take your hand
Hear the curlew call
Tiny island kingdom
Huge and small
[Chorus]
We’re running like hares under the moon
Heartbeat racing
Too wild
Too soon
Owls drawing circles in the silver light
Britain’s little secrets waking in the night
(Hey, hey) hares under the moon
(Hey, hey) dancing out of tune
In the fields where the shadows bloom
We’re running like hares under the moon
