| This afternoon I went downtown
| Esta tarde fui al centro
|
| I was looking for your face
| estaba buscando tu cara
|
| Where I walked with you a thousand times before
| Donde caminé contigo mil veces antes
|
| But the only trace I found
| Pero el único rastro que encontré
|
| Was a yesterday I lost along the way
| Fue un ayer que perdí en el camino
|
| I smelled your perfume in the air
| olí tu perfume en el aire
|
| And I turned but you weren’t there
| Y me volteé pero no estabas
|
| It was just your portrait painted in my mind
| Era solo tu retrato pintado en mi mente
|
| And pictures there of me and you
| Y fotos allí de mí y de ti
|
| Memories that like a fool I left behind
| Recuerdos que como un tonto dejé atrás
|
| Once there was a time when I was yours and you were mine
| Una vez hubo un tiempo en que yo era tuyo y tú eras mía
|
| And every search for you would stop at our front door
| Y cada búsqueda de ti se detendría en nuestra puerta principal
|
| You were always waiting there for me at night when I’d come home
| Siempre me estabas esperando allí por la noche cuando llegaba a casa.
|
| I’d see your smiling face and I’d feel great once more
| Vería tu cara sonriente y me sentiría genial una vez más
|
| Like a fool I walked away
| Como un tonto me alejé
|
| And some sounds along the way
| Y algunos sonidos en el camino
|
| It was only me just whispering your name
| Solo fui yo susurrando tu nombre
|
| As I walked along the street
| Mientras caminaba por la calle
|
| Hoping that someday we’d maybe meet again | Esperando que algún día nos volvamos a encontrar |
