flirted with you all my life

Singer: cowboy junkies

i am a man

i am self-aware

and everywhere i go

you are 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

and 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 me

decimate those dear to me

teased me with your sweet release

you are full and you are constant. when my mom she was cancer sick

she fought but then succumbed to it

but you made her beg for it

sweet jesus

please i'm ready. oh death

oh death

oh death

really

i'm not ready

no no no. i'm not ready

i'm not ready

no

no

oh death

oh death

really

i'm not ready.
