If we're growing old, let us be
Marrow carry underground
Shade and sinew settle down
If we've got a while on borrowed time
Death can wait impatiently
The dog has caught him up a tree
And I'll remind myself and my bride

[Chorus]
I came here for the fight
I came here for the fight
No, the world is never right
I came here for the fight

Measure out a life, both of ours
In arguments and coffee spoons
Dancing in the living room
Every tiny word you sent to me
Kept and keeping even still
Finger written window-sill
I breathe, it shows, what we both know

[Chorus]
I came here for the fight
I came here for the fight
No, the world is never right
I came here for the fight
You are mine
We can take our time
