In The Long Run
Navigating Love's Turbulence: In The Long Run by Gustavo Bertoni
Lyrics
We built this ship with our own blood
We constructed this ship through our own sacrifices and hardships.
And now it sails with a crew
Now the ship operates with a crew.
It brings together the people
It unites people but causes a rift between you and me.
But pulls apart me and you
While bringing others together, it creates distance between us.
Oh, I won't overlook this
I won't ignore or disregard this situation.
A brave new land in the distance
A promising new place is visible in the distance.
We're counting stars in the night
We're hopeful, looking at the stars in the night sky.
But the wolf stands in our doorstep and we
However, a problem or threat looms near us, symbolized by a wolf at our doorstep.
Have been too busy to see
We've been too preoccupied to notice this imminent danger.
Oh, I know it takes more than words
I understand it requires more than just words to address our situation.
Refrão:
Chorus:
The cap' sinks with the ship
The captain sinks with the ship, implying shared responsibility.
And we're all captains here
We all possess leadership roles or responsibilities.
Standing at the abyss
We're facing a critical point or a situation of extreme uncertainty.
When all hope disappears
During times of despair when hope vanishes.
In the long run,
Reiterating the phrase for emphasis.
In the long run,
Repeating the statement for emphasis.
We'll fill our lungs to say
We'll take a deep breath to proudly express we did things in our unique way.
We did it our own way
Emphasizing the individuality and distinctiveness of our actions.
Now it's been nearly decade
Nearly a decade has passed.
Of much love, blood, sweat and tears
We've invested a significant amount of love, hard work, and dedication.
How many times could have we strayed?
Reflecting on the times when we could have gone astray.
And we stayed true to our dreams
Despite challenges, we remained committed to our aspirations.
No one could tear us apart
No external force could break our bond.
In every step I have taken
In every action I've taken or will take, I carry your essence with me.
Or all that I'll ever take
Highlighting the enduring presence of your influence in my life's journey.
I bring your aura beside me
Expressing the beauty of your presence alongside me.
And that's the beauty of this
Emphasizing the positive aspect of our connection.
Oh, I'm sure we'll be all right
Expressing confidence that things will ultimately turn out fine.
