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.
