Lyrics (Don't Fear) The Reaper - Live 1981 - Blue Öyster Cult

Thank you, Denver, thanks everybody
Thank you, Denver, good night
Thanks everybody
About time to play a couple for you before we head on out
Yeah
Like to play this song for you now, it's from our "Agents of Fortune" album

All our times have come
Here, but now they're gone

Seasons don't fear the reaper
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain
We can be like they are
Come on, baby (don't fear the reaper)
Baby, take my hand (don't fear the reaper)
We'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper)
Baby, I'm your man

La, la-la, la-la
La, la-la, la-la

Valentine is done
Here but now they're gone

Romeo and Juliet are together in eternity (Romeo and Juliet)
40, 000 men and women every day (like Romeo and Juliet)
40, 000 men and women every day (redefine happiness)
Another 40, 000 coming every day (we can be like they are)

Come on, baby (don't fear the reaper)
Baby, take my hand (don't fear the reaper)
We'll be able to fly (don't fear the reaper)
Baby, I'm your man

La, la-la, la-la
La, la-la, la-la

Love of two is one
Here, but now they're gone

Came the last night of sadness
And it was clear she couldn't go on
The door was open and the wind appeared
The candles blew and then disappeared
The curtains flew and then he appeared
Saying don't be afraid

Come on, baby (and she had no fear)
And she ran to him (then they started to fly)
They looked backward and said goodbye (she had become like they are)
She had taken his hand (she had become like they are)
Come on, baby (don't fear the reaper)
