  • Broke down, thought that I would drown
    Hope that I've been found, 'fore I hit the ground
    Sun rays out the corner of my eye, hey
    Saw you weeping, saw you creeping
    Saw you sneaking in the shadow's dawn
    I feel so strong
    Saw you out the corner of my eye

    Don't come for me today
    I'm feeling good
    I'mma savor it
    Don't come for me today
    I'm feeling good
    I remember when
    (Reaper)

    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 reaper
    (Reaper) oh no baby, no baby, not today
    (Reaper) oh reaper
    (Reaper) oh no baby, no baby, not today

    So come back when I'm good to go
    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
    I'mma savor it
    Don't come for me today
    I'm feeling good
    I remember when
    (Reaper)

    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 reaper
    Oh no baby, no baby, not today
    (Reaper) Oh reaper
    Oh no baby, no baby, not today
