The Coroner’s Gambit Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When death came calling today
I heard the gentle grace of his cadences

[Refrain]
I couldn't say no
I couldn't say no

[Verse 2]
When he showed me his new silk scarves
Laid out on a shiny black plastic tray

[Refrain]
Couldn't say, couldn't say, couldn't say
Couldn't say, couldn't say no
I couldn't say no

[Bridge]
And I'm sorry I couldn't
Do you know how badly I wanted to?
Didn't want, didn't want, didn't want
Didn't want, didn't want to lose you

[Verse 3]
But his smile was dazzling
And his eyes were sparkling
Like moonlight on the water at midnight

[Refrain]
Couldn't say, couldn't say, couldn't say
Couldn't say, couldn't say, couldn't say no
I couldn't say no
