Letras de Old College Avenue - Harry Chapin

Old College Avenue (original)

Of course I picked a rainy night
To try to find our past
The street lights all were flickering
The leaves were falling fast
I walked down the winding road
Looked up through the trees
And I saw the corner window
That you once shared with me It was Old College Avenue
And in the time of having you
I remember it as if it were today
The tiny room and the single bed
Though the tangled trails of time
Have led us far astray
The membrance seems to stay
And through all the roads
That led me on And through all the years
That you’ve been gone
I have found that it would never go away
It was Old College Avenue
And in the time of having you
I remember it as if it were today
That fall turned into winter
The winter into spring
And all the while, you led me through
The sweet awakening
But summer never came that year
It’s what you went to find
And you took my future with you
And you left your past behind
It was Old College Avenue
And in the time of having you
I remember it as if it were today
The tiny room and the single bed
Though the tangled trails of time
Have led us far astray
The membrance seems to stay
And through all the roads
That led me on And through all the years
that you’ve been gone
I have found that it would never go away
It was Old College Avenue
And in the time of having you
I remember it as if it were today
I remember you
As if It were
Today

(traducción)

Por supuesto que elegí una noche lluviosa
Para intentar encontrar nuestro pasado
Todas las luces de la calle parpadeaban
Las hojas caían rápido
Caminé por el camino sinuoso
Miró hacia arriba a través de los árboles
Y vi la ventana de la esquina
Que una vez compartiste conmigo Era Old College Avenue
Y en el tiempo de tenerte
Lo recuerdo como si fuera hoy
La habitación diminuta y la cama individual.
Aunque los senderos enredados del tiempo
Nos han llevado por mal camino
El recuerdo parece quedarse
Y por todos los caminos
Eso me llevó a través de todos los años
Que te has ido
Descubrí que nunca desaparecería
Era Old College Avenue
Y en el tiempo de tenerte
Lo recuerdo como si fuera hoy
Ese otoño se convirtió en invierno
El invierno en primavera
Y todo el tiempo, me guiaste a través
el dulce despertar
Pero el verano nunca llegó ese año
Es lo que fuiste a buscar
Y te llevaste mi futuro contigo
Y dejaste tu pasado atrás
Era Old College Avenue
Y en el tiempo de tenerte
Lo recuerdo como si fuera hoy
La habitación diminuta y la cama individual.
Aunque los senderos enredados del tiempo
Nos han llevado por mal camino
El recuerdo parece quedarse
Y por todos los caminos
Eso me llevó a través de todos los años
que te has ido
Descubrí que nunca desaparecería
Era Old College Avenue
Y en el tiempo de tenerte
Lo recuerdo como si fuera hoy
Te recuerdo
Como si fuera
Hoy dia
