Death, Please Do Us Part

It's been a long time since the last time I've seen your face
Oh it's been a long time since the last time I've seen your face
And in that time, we went and died away
And it's one two three four five six seven
I could count to ten but you ain't close to heaven

I hated you now, hate you then
Somehow I knew I'd hate you 'till the end
And when that reaper kissed you
You went and died away
And it's ten nine eight seven six five four
Loving you's the one thing I can do no more

You always wanted to travel to Peru
Just to find another man
That would do it for you
You see my plan was quite different
Had a knife in my pocket
Took aim at your throat
I hit your silver locket
Oh yes I did
And I swore to God I would do it
But he heard me
And the reaper beat me to it

Cause we ate together
Slept together
Hate together
And we died together
See, I don't plan to stay together
So there's just one thing I can say to you
I think goodbye will do
