Not Today
By Ann Jennings
One day death passed me by
Just ships passing in the night
By pure chance we did not collide
A pure coincidence, I won that fight
An old friend, an old foe
Frightened, but not alone
One day I'll walk with you
Into the unknown
Boom boom, clap clap, my my
Lightning strikes from the sky
Boom boom, clap clap, my my
But the thunder rolls on by
And several times we met again
A burning smell upon on the wind
The deep electric squeeze it sends
But we say, again, not today my friend
An old friend, an old foe
Frightened, but not alone
One day I'll walk with you
Into the unknown
Boom boom, clap clap, my my
Lightning strikes from the sky
Boom boom, clap clap, my my
But the thunder rolls on by
When the day comes, to pay that tender
When the day comes, the time to surrender
When the day comes, we will remember
The days we escaped the final slumber
An old friend, an old foe
Frightened, but not alone
One day I'll walk with you
Into the unknown
Boom boom, clap clap, my my
Lightning strikes from the sky
Boom boom, clap clap, my my
But the thunder rolls on by
