Traducción de la letra de la canción Redondo Beach - Patti Smith

Redondo Beach (original)

Late afternoon, dreaming hotel
We just had the quarrel that sent you away
I was looking for you, are you gone gone?
Called you on the phone, another dimension
Well, you never returned, oh you know what I mean
I went looking for you, are you gone, gone?
Down by the ocean it was so dismal
Women all standing with a shock on their faces
Sad description, oh I was looking for you
Everyone was singing, girl is washed up
On Redondo Beach and everyone is so sad
I was looking for you, are you gone gone?
Pretty little girl, everyone cried
She was the victim of sweet suicide
I went looking for you, are you gone gone?
Down by the ocean it was so dismal
Women all standing with shock on their faces
Sad description, oh I was looking for you
Desk clerk told me girl was washed up
Was small, an angel with apple blonde hair, now
I went looking for you, are you gone gone?
Picked up my key, didn’t reply
Went to my room, started to cry
You were small, an angel, are you gone gone?
Down by the ocean it was so dismal
I was just standing with shock on my face
The hearse pulled away, and the girl that had died, it was you
You’ll never return into my arms 'cause you were gone gone
Never return into my arms 'cause you were gone gone
Gone gone, gone gone, good-bye

(traducción)

Al final de la tarde, hotel de ensueño
Acabamos de tener la pelea que te envió lejos
Te estaba buscando, ¿te has ido?
Te llamé por teléfono, otra dimensión
Bueno, nunca regresaste, oh sabes a lo que me refiero
Fui a buscarte, ¿te has ido, te has ido?
Abajo por el océano era tan triste
Todas las mujeres de pie con un shock en sus rostros
Triste descripción, oh te estaba buscando
Todo el mundo estaba cantando, la chica está lavada
En Redondo Beach y todos están tan tristes
Te estaba buscando, ¿te has ido?
Niña bonita, todos lloraron
Ella fue víctima de un dulce suicidio.
Fui a buscarte, ¿te has ido?
Abajo por el océano era tan triste
Todas las mujeres de pie con sorpresa en sus rostros.
Triste descripción, oh te estaba buscando
El recepcionista me dijo que la chica se lavó
Era pequeño, un ángel con cabello rubio manzana, ahora
Fui a buscarte, ¿te has ido?
Recogí mi llave, no respondí
Fui a mi habitación, comencé a llorar
Eras pequeño, un ángel, ¿te has ido?
Abajo por el océano era tan triste
Solo estaba parado con sorpresa en mi cara
El coche fúnebre se alejó, y la chica que había muerto, eras tú
Nunca volverás a mis brazos porque te fuiste
Nunca regreses a mis brazos porque te fuiste
Ido ido, ido ido, adiós
