Traducción de la letra de la canción I Hardly Knew It Was You - Faron Young

I Hardly Knew It Was You (original)

Tinted hair and painted lips
Polish on your fingertips
I hardly knew it was you
Shabby dress and worn out lock
A shadow of the girl I love
I hardly knew it was you
You once said that you
Would have no one
Not no one will ever have you
A life of hardship and disgrace
I see it written on your face
I hardly knew it was you
Custom jewels and cheap perfume
Tou’re like a rose that’s lost its bloom
I hardly knew it was you
From the simple girl I knew
You have changed dear, goin' through
I hardly knew it was you
We could have lived our lives together
But your heart had a mind all its own
What a pity what a shame
I don’t know who’s to blame
But I hardly knew it was you…

(traducción)

Cabello teñido y labios pintados.
Pulir en la punta de tus dedos
Apenas sabía que eras tú
Vestido gastado y candado gastado
Una sombra de la chica que amo
Apenas sabía que eras tú
Una vez dijiste que tu
no tendría a nadie
No nadie nunca te tendrá
Una vida de penurias y desgracias
Lo veo escrito en tu cara
Apenas sabía que eras tú
Joyas personalizadas y perfumes baratos
Eres como una rosa que ha perdido su flor
Apenas sabía que eras tú
De la chica sencilla que conocí
Has cambiado querida, pasando por
Apenas sabía que eras tú
Podríamos haber vivido nuestras vidas juntos
Pero tu corazón tenía una mente propia
Que lastima que verguenza
no se quien tiene la culpa
Pero apenas sabía que eras tú...
