ONLY LOVERS LEFT ALIVE
Daddy got a tattoo that says
"Born to lose"
Got a motorcycle jacket
Old blue suede shoes
Thinks time won't catch him if he don't stand still
Mama tells her son, "our life is so insane
Daddy drops in to say hello and then he's gone again
We're only left with time to kill"
You can run but you can't hide
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
One evening when the sun is setting red in the sky
Daddy strapped on his boots
"Born to lose"
Got a motorcycle jacket
Old blue suede shoes
Thinks time won't catch him if he don't stand still
Mama tells her son, "our life is so insane
Daddy drops in to say hello and then he's gone again
We're only left with time to kill"
You can run but you can't hide
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
One evening when the sun is setting red in the sky
Daddy strapped on his boots
And took his bike out for a ride
Hit the open highway with no thoughts of going home
After a while she grew tired of waiting
Hit the open highway with no thoughts of going home
After a while she grew tired of waiting
And stopped expecting anything
She's forgotten how to smile and how to sing
She could never stand to be alone
She's forgotten how to smile and how to sing
She could never stand to be alone
She can run but she can't hide
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
You can run but you can't hide
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
He starts hanging with the tough guys
Because he thinks they're cool
Starts smoking and drinking and cutting school
Mama says, "He won't listen anymore
And I don't know what to do
Since his Daddy left he hasn't been the same
He's a good boy, he's just angry
He needs someone to blame
I wonder if the old man knows
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
You can run but you can't hide
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
He starts hanging with the tough guys
Because he thinks they're cool
Starts smoking and drinking and cutting school
Mama says, "He won't listen anymore
And I don't know what to do
Since his Daddy left he hasn't been the same
He's a good boy, he's just angry
He needs someone to blame
I wonder if the old man knows
What he's putting us through"
Well he can run but he can never hide
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
Somewhere there's only lovers left alive
SÓLO LOS
AMANTES SOBREVIVEN
Papá llevaba tatuado
“Nacido para perder”
Tenía una chaqueta motera
Viejos zapatos de ante azul
Cree que el tiempo no le atrapará si no para quieto
Mamá dice al hijo: “Nuestra vida es una locura
Papá entra para saludar y enseguida se marcha otra
vez
Quedamos solos para matar el tiempo”
Puedes correr pero no esconderte
En algún lugar sólo los amantes sobreviven
En algún lugar sólo los amantes sobreviven
En algún lugar sólo los amantes sobreviven
Una tarde mientras el sol se ponía rojo en el cielo
Papá se calzó sus botas
Y sacó la moto para dar una vuelta
Se dirigió a la autopista sin intenciones de volver
a casa
Después de un tiempo, ella se cansó de esperar
Y abandonó toda esperanza
Ha olvidado cómo sonreír y cómo cantar
Jamás pudo soportar quedarse sola
Puede correr pero no esconderse
En algún lugar sólo los amantes sobreviven
En algún lugar sólo los amantes sobreviven
En algún lugar sólo los amantes sobreviven
Puedes correr pero no esconderte
En algún lugar sólo los amantes sobreviven
En algún lugar sólo los amantes sobreviven
En algún lugar sólo los amantes sobreviven
Él empezó a andar con tipos duros
Porque le parecían enrollados
Empezó a fumar y a beber y a dejar el colegio
Mamá decía: “Ya no me escucha
Y no sé qué hacer
Desde que su padre se marchó ya no es el mismo
Es un buen chico, sólo está molesto
Necesita alguien a quien culpar
Me pregunto si su viejo sabrá
Lo que nos hace aguantar”
Puede correr pero jamás podrá esconderse
En algún lugar sólo los amantes sobreviven
En algún lugar sólo los amantes sobreviven
En algún lugar sólo los amantes sobreviven
