Lord, avert her eyes 'Til I crawl right out of sight Cos she's the fair enemy feared most in the fight And I don't fear the reaper, just don't want to meet her Alone 'cross the sands tonight Hell, it waits for me I can't tell, is that your dress I see? And no matter where I turn you're still shaking my tree Cos I don't fear the reaper, just don't want to meet her Alone when it's just you and me In love and war, nothing's fair at all Don't even get to hold you anymore Lord, you're all I need Whether I'm sharpening swords or just pointing East But how come they'll defeat us when they're the ones who bleed? Cos I don't fear the reaper, just don't want to meet her Alone and unarmed, you see Cos I don't fear the reaper, just don't want to meet her Alone 'cross the sands tonight Cos I don't fear the reaper, just don't want to meet her Alone 'cross the sands tonight Alone 'cross the sands tonight
