Broke down, thought that I would drown Hope that I'd be found, 'fore I hit the ground Some days out the corner of my eye, hey Saw you weeping, saw you creeping, saw you sneaking In the shadows long the fear so strong Saw you out the corner of my eye
Don't come for me today I'm feeling good, let me savor it Don't come for me today I'm feeling good and I remember when
You came to take me away So close I was to heaven's gates But no baby, no baby, not today Oh, you tried to track me down You followed me like the darkest cloud But no baby, no baby, not today (Reaper) Oh the reaper (Reaper) Oh no baby, no baby, not today (Reaper) Oh the reaper (Reaper) Oh no baby, no baby, not today
So come back when I'm good and old I got drinks to drink, and men to hold I got good things to do with my life, yeah Oh, I wanna dance in the open breeze Feel the wind in my hair, hear the ocean sing I got good things to feel in my life, yeah
Don't come for me today I'm feeling good, let me savour it Don't come for me today I'm feeling good, I remember when
You came to take me away So close I was to heaven's gates But no baby, no baby, not today Oh, you tried to track me down You followed me like the darkest cloud But no baby, no baby, not today (Reaper) Oh the reaper (Reaper) Oh no baby, no baby, not today (Reaper) Oh the reaper (Reaper) Oh no baby, no baby, not today
