El Toro
Defeat and Redemption: El Toro's Legacy in a Matador's Tale
Lyrics
There's a legend of a famous matador
There is a story about a renowned matador.
Who went to meet El Toro
He faced the formidable El Toro.
Though he fought as he had never done before
Despite fighting with unprecedented skill,
He could not beat, El Toro
He couldn't overcome El Toro.
The bull El Toro, brought him defeat and pain
El Toro, the bull, caused him defeat and pain.
And to his sorrow, the matador knew shame
Regrettably, the matador experienced shame.
They said time would never heal the many scars
People believed that time wouldn't heal
Brought by the great, El Toro
The numerous scars inflicted by the mighty El Toro.
And the bitterness that burned deep in his heart
Bitterness in his heart fueled hatred for El Toro.
Caused him to hate, El Toro
The bull El Toro, brought him defeat and pain
The matador faced shame once again.
And to his sorrow, the matador knew shame
So one night, when no-one was on sight
Under the cover of night,
The matador, went to finish the score
The matador sought to settle the score.
In the lonely fields, beneath the pale moonlight
In the quiet fields, bathed in moonlight,
He fought the bull...and they fought once more
They fought again - the matador and El Toro.
When they found the matador and saw him dying
When they discovered the dying matador,
He'd never see tomorrow
His tomorrow would never come.
Now they say that on the spot where he was lying
It's said El Toro still roams where he fell.
Still walks the proud El Toro
The bull El Toro, brought him defeat and pain
The matador faced enduring shame.
And to his sorrow, the matador knew shame
