Flirted With You All My Life - Bright Eyes

I am a man

I am self-aware

And everywhere I go

You’re always right there with me

I flirted with you all my life

Even kissed you once or twice

And to this day I swear it was nice

But, clearly, I was not ready

When you touched a friend of mine

I thought I would lose my mind

But I found out with time

That, really, I was not ready (No, no)

Oh death, oh death

Oh death, really, I’m not ready

Oh death, you hector me

And decimate those dear to me

You tease me with your sweet relief

You are cruel and you are constant

When my mom was cancer sick

She fought but then succumbed to it

But you made her beg for it

«Lord Jesus, please, I’m ready»

Oh death, oh death

Oh death, really, I’m not ready (No, no)

Oh death, oh death

Oh death, clearly, I am not ready (No, no)
