Flirted With You All My Life

Death Cab for Cutie - Flirted With You All My Life

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 that 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 hinder me

Death makes those dear to me

Tease me with your sweet relief

You're cool 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'm not ready
