Letras de The Owl and I - Hank Snow

The Owl and I (original)

A boy and girl were kissing beneath a linden tree
A lonely owl was watching a little jealously
It seemed that he was saying I want my sweetheart too
But she’s flown off with someone I often wonder who
Whoo-whoo-whoo (whoo-whoo-who-who)
The summer moon grew brighter the owl looked down at me
He saw that I was lonely alone the same as he
He thought of his beloved and as I thought of you
He asked the same old question that I am asking you
Break (guitar)
The owl and I were blinking and fighting back the tears
We sat all night together like friends of many years
We both are hoping someday to find somebody new
Someone who’ll make us happy another love but who
Whoo-whoo-whoo (whoo-whoo-whoo)
Whoo-whoo-whoo-who (whoo-whoo-who-who)

(traducción)

Un chico y una chica se besaban debajo de un tilo
Un búho solitario miraba un poco celoso
Parecía que estaba diciendo yo también quiero a mi amor
Pero se ha ido con alguien. A menudo me pregunto quién
Whoo-whoo-whoo (whoo-whoo-who-who)
La luna de verano se hizo más brillante, el búho me miró
Vio que yo estaba solo solo igual que él
Pensó en su amada y como yo pensé en ti
Hizo la misma vieja pregunta que te estoy haciendo
descanso (guitarra)
El búho y yo estábamos parpadeando y luchando por contener las lágrimas.
Nos sentamos toda la noche juntos como amigos de muchos años.
Ambos esperamos algún día encontrar a alguien nuevo.
Alguien que nos haga felices otro amor pero que
Whoo-whoo-whoo (whoo-whoo-whoo)
Whoo-whoo-whoo-who (whoo-whoo-whoo-who)
