Hello, reaper Have we met? Still so many things I haven't said Hello, darkness Here again Last I saw you I was tangled in my head Hello, sadness Are you here to stay? Right when things were finally going my way I met this angel She taught me to fly Yeah, she showed me all the colors of the sky So please, don't take her away But if you do I'm just skin and bones I know that there's room When the man in black comes to cash his check And you're holding on to your final breath When you walk out the door, know that I will too I hope they build coffins for two When I was younger I used to pray That my life was more that the sum of my mistakes And now you're here Dressed in white Guess you heard my voice on all those lonely nights Now we're older But you look brand new Every day I'm falling more in love with you When you're tired And your eyes close You won't have to take your final walk alone So if forever leaves too soon Only skin and bones I know that there's room When the man in black comes to cash his check And you're holding on to your final breath When you walk out the door, know that I will too I hope they build coffins for two I'm never leaving you Coffins for two I'm never leaving you When the man in black comes to cash his check And you're holding on to your final breath When you walk out the door, know that I will too I hope they build coffins for two I hope they build coffins for two
