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
Maybe we don't have to be all alone
The fighter goes inside,
The dawn is creepin' in,
He swings with all his might,
At all that mattered then,
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
Maybe we don't have to be all alone
What breaks your bones,
Is not the load you're carryin',
What breaks you down,
Is all in how you carry...
The lover held her love,
She begs him not to go,
She unwraps his gloves,
The lover said I know I know I know,
Kissed his trembling lips,
She touched his fingertips,
Somehow they both know,
He's not comin' home, comin' home
Loneliness has always been with me, with me
Maybe we were meant to be on our own,
But I gotta try or it will destroy me,
'Cause baby we don't have to be all alone
Maybe we were meant to be on our own,
Loneliness has always been with me, with me
Maybe we don't have to be all alone
What breaks your bones,
Is not the load you're carryin',
What breaks you down,
Is all in how you carry...
The lover held her love,
She begs him not to go,
She unwraps his gloves,
The lover said I know I know I know,
Kissed his trembling lips,
She touched his fingertips,
Somehow they both know,
He's not comin' home, comin' home
Loneliness has always been with me, with me
Maybe we were meant to be on our own,
But I gotta try or it will destroy me,
'Cause baby we don't have to be all alone
El luchador
Ella estaba enamorada de él,
Le suplico que no se fuera,
El luchador se puso sus guantes,
El luchador dijo “lo sé, lo sé, lo sé,”
“Sólo esta última vez”,
“Te juro que seguirás siendo mía”,
Pero él no puede prometer mucho,
Él va por el último, un último toque
Tal vez estábamos destinados a estar solos, solos
Tal vez estábamos destinados a no estar juntos
La soledad siempre ha estado conmigo, conmigo
Tal vez no tengamos que estar solos
El luchador llega,
Está amaneciendo lentamente,
Él golpeó con todas sus fuerzas,
Por todo lo que importaba entonces,
Y ella está enamorada de él,
Pero los enamorados no siempre ganan,
Él nunca vio el golpe,
Ella grita su nombre, lo llama
Tal vez estábamos destinados a estar solos, solos
Tal vez estábamos destinados a no estar juntos
La soledad siempre ha estado conmigo, conmigo
Tal vez no tengamos que estar solos
Lo que rompe tus huesos,
No es la carga que llevas,
Lo que te derriba,
Es la forma en que lo llevas…
Ella estaba enamorada de él,
Ella le suplica que no se vaya,
Ella le quita sus guantes,
El enamorado dijo lo sé, lo sé, lo sé,
Ella besó sus temblorosos labios,
Ella le tocó sus manos,
De alguna manera ambos sabían que
Él no regresaría a casa, no regresaría a casa
La soledad siempre ha estado conmigo, conmigo,
Tal vez estábamos destinados a no estar juntos,
Pero tengo que intentarlo o esto me destruirá,
Porque nena no tenemos que estar solos
