The Fighter

The lover held her love
She begged him not to go
The fighter wrapped his gloves
The fighter said I know, I know, I know
Just this one last time
I swear you'll still be mine
But he can't promise much
He goes for one last touch, one last touch

Maybe we were meant to be lonely, lonely
Maybe we were meant to be on our own
Loneliness has always been with me, with me
But maybe we don't have to be all alone

The fighter goes inside
The doubt is creeping in
He swings with all his might
At all that might have been
And she's in love with him
But lovers don't always win
He never even saw the swing
She calls out his name
Calls his name

Maybe we were meant to be lonely, lonely
Maybe we were meant to be on our own
Loneliness has always been with me, with me
But maybe we don't have to be all alone

What breaks your bones
Is not the load you're carrying
What breaks you down
Is all in how you carry

The lover held her love
She begged him not to go
She unwrapped his gloves
The lover said I know, I know, I know
Kissed his trembling lips
She touched fingertips
But somehow they both know
He's not coming home, coming home

Loneliness has always been with me, with me
Maybe we were meant to be on our own
But I got to try or it will destroy me
?Cause maybe we don't have to be all alone

El luchador

El amante sostenía su amor
Ella le rogó que no fuera
El luchador envolvió sus guantes
El luchador dijo que lo sé, lo sé, lo sé
Sólo esta última vez
Te juro que seguirás siendo mía
Pero no puede prometer mucho
Él va para un último toque, un último toque

Tal vez estábamos destinados a estar solos, solos
Tal vez estábamos destinados a estar solos
La soledad siempre ha estado conmigo, conmigo
Pero tal vez no tengamos que estar solos

El luchador entra
La duda se arrastra en
Se balancea con todas sus fuerzas
En absoluto que podría haber sido
Y ella está enamorada de él
Pero los amantes no siempre ganan
Ni siquiera vio el columpio
Ella dice su nombre
Llama a su nombre

Tal vez estábamos destinados a estar solos, solos
Tal vez estábamos destinados a estar solos
La soledad siempre ha estado conmigo, conmigo
Pero tal vez no tengamos que estar solos

Lo que te rompe los huesos
¿No es la carga que llevas?
¿Qué te descompone?
Es todo en la forma en que llevas

El amante sostenía su amor
Ella le rogó que no fuera
Ella desenvolvió sus guantes
El amante dijo que lo sé, lo sé, lo sé
Besó sus temblorosos labios
Ella tocó las yemas de los dedos
Pero de alguna manera ambos saben
No va a volver a casa, volver a casa

La soledad siempre ha estado conmigo, conmigo
Tal vez estábamos destinados a estar solos
Pero tengo que intentarlo o me destruirá
? Porque tal vez no tengamos que estar solos
