A Handsome Stranger Called Death

[Verse 1]
Tall dark and handsome, a cigar in your mouth
A little black dog, and suitcase by your side
The lights had turned down real low
I knew it from the get go
Couldn't help but take my lipstick out

[Pre-Chorus]
You told me to start walking
The streets were overcrowded here that night
You told me to look straight into the light
Look the angels are all coming down for you tonight

[Verse 2]
We walked past the roses past all the houses in the street
The faces in the window knew that
Something wasn't meant to be seen
We started walking faster
My heart was all a flutter
I couldn't help but follow you it seemed

[Pre-Chorus]
You told me to start running
The streets were overcrowded here that night
You told me to look straight into the light
Look the heavens are opening up for you tonight
A handsome stranger called death...

[Chorus]
Somebody save me, I don't wanna be another
Dead at twenty, something or another
I'm a kid full of history, I don't wanna be another
Dead at twenty something, or another...

[Verse 3]
Tall dark and handsome, a cigar in your mouth
A little black dog and the biggest smile
Maybe I should go, he tells me I should go
The streets are overcrowded, let's get out

[Chorus]
Somebody save me, I don't wanna be another
Dead at twenty, something or another
I'm a kid full of history, I don't wanna be another
Dead at twenty, something or another
I have to make my history
I don't wanna be another with no history
Someone or another or a dead twenty
Someone being greeted by a handsome stranger called death
