Love and War

Love and War

 

When I sing about love and war

I don't really know what I'm saying

I've been in love and I've seen a lot of war

Seen a lot of people praying

They pray to Allah and they pray to the Lord

But mostly they pray about love and war

Pray about love and war

Pray about love and war

 

I've seen a lot of young men go to war

And leave a lot of young brides waiting

I've watched them try to explain it to their kids

And seen a lot of them failing

They tried to tell them and they tried to explain

Why daddy won't ever come home again.

Daddy won't ever come home

Daddy won't ever come home

 

I said a lot of things that I can't take back

But I don't really know if I want to

I sang songs about love,

I sang songs about war

Since the backstreets of Toronto

I sang for justice and I hit a bad chord

But I still try to sing about love and war

Sing about love and war

Sing about love and war

 

The saddest thing in the whole wide world

Is to break the heart of your lover

I made a mistake and I did it again

And we struggled to recover

Then I sang in anger,

hit another bad chord

But I still try to sing about love and war

Sing about love and war

Sing about love and war

 

When I sing about love and war

I don't really know what I'm saying

I've been in love and I've seen a lot of war

Seen a lot of people praying

They pray to Allah and they pray to the Lord

But mostly they pray about love and war

Love and war.

 

Amor y Guerra

 

Cuando canto sobre amor y guerra

No sé realmente qué estoy diciendo

He estado enamorado y he visto muchas guerras

He visto rezar a mucha gente

Le rezan a Alá y le rezan al Señor

Pero por encima de todo rezan sobre amor y guerra

Rezan sobre amor y guerra

Rezan sobre amor y guerra

 

He visto a muchos jóvenes ir a la guerra

Y dejar a muchas jóvenes recién casadas esperando

Las he visto intentar dar una explicación a sus hijos

Y he visto a muchas que no lo consiguen

Intentaron decirles e intentaron explicarles

Por qué papá no volverá a casa nunca más

Papá no volverá a casa

Papá no volverá a casa

 

He dicho muchas cosas que no puedo retirar

Pero en realidad no sé si quiero hacerlo

He cantado canciones sobre amor,

he cantado canciones sobre guerra

Desde los tiempos de las calles de los barrios bajos de Toronto

Canté por la justicia y toqué un acorde equivocado

Pero sigo intentando cantar sobre amor y guerra

Cantar sobre amor y guerra

Cantar sobre amor y guerra

 

La cosa más triste de este mundo

Es romper el corazón de tu amor

Cometí un error y lo volví a cometer

Y luchamos para recuperarnos

Entonces canté airadamente

y toqué otro acorde equivocado

Pero todavía intento cantar sobre amor y guerra

Cantar sobre amor y guerra

Cantar sobre amor y guerra

 

Cuando canto sobre amor y guerra

No sé realmente qué estoy diciendo

He estado enamorado y he visto muchas guerras

He visto rezar a mucha gente

Le rezan a Alá y le rezan al Señor

Pero por encima de todo rezan sobre amor y guerra

Amor y guerra.
