This is not a Futureheads song, I agree. I have only heard the Futureheads cover and I think they do a fantastic job of it - but naturally they had great lyrics to build on. But still, it all makes sense - except for the lyric
"take my shoes off and throw them in the lake
and I will be two steps on the water"
I mean, what the fuck does that mean?
This song inspired me to research fox hunting and write a 60 page story on it.
The world of adult love is hurtling at her and she doesn't know how to deal. So she pleads for someone to take her shoes off and throw them in the lake, i.e. take her childish constraints and get rid of them, and she'll have the confidence to take a second step beyond the first step of interest. But this world she yearns for can be harsh and little foxes might get hurt. It has to do with praying for confidence and desiring the ease with which some seem to play this game of love.
