As She Rides By (original)

Lord, how I must make a pitiful sight
Standing alone in the rain tonight
I’ve abandoned a room that’s warm and dry
To gaze at my love as she rides by
As she rides by
As she rides by
To gaze at my love
As she rides by
Lord, how I wish I was wealthy and free
I’d know my love and she’d know me
I would build me a tower, I’d build it high
Smile at my love as she rode by
As she rode by
As she rode by
Smile at my love
As she rode by
Lord, but a tower needs bricks and lime
Land for to stand and a host of time
Men for to raise it to the sky
And all for my love as she rides by
As she rides by
As she rides by
And all for my love
As she rides by
Lord, but a dream is a pleasure to find
I’ve built a tower in my mind
And I’ve only to blink and close my eye
To gaze at my love as she rides by
As she rides by
As she rides by
To gaze at my love
As she rides by
As she rides by
As she rides by
To gaze at my love
As she rides by

(traducción)

Señor, cómo debo hacer un espectáculo lamentable
De pie solo bajo la lluvia esta noche
He abandonado una habitación que es cálida y seca.
Para mirar a mi amor mientras ella cabalga
Mientras ella cabalga
Mientras ella cabalga
Para mirar a mi amor
Mientras ella cabalga
Señor, cómo me gustaría ser rico y libre
Yo conocería a mi amor y ella me conocería
Me construiría una torre, la construiría alta
Sonríe a mi amor mientras ella cabalgaba
Mientras ella cabalgaba
Mientras ella cabalgaba
Sonríe a mi amor
Mientras ella cabalgaba
Señor, pero una torre necesita ladrillos y cal
Tierra para estar de pie y una gran cantidad de tiempo
Hombres para elevarlo al cielo
Y todo por mi amor mientras ella cabalga
Mientras ella cabalga
Mientras ella cabalga
Y todo por mi amor
Mientras ella cabalga
Señor, pero un sueño es un placer de encontrar
He construido una torre en mi mente
Y solo tengo que parpadear y cerrar el ojo
Para mirar a mi amor mientras ella cabalga
Mientras ella cabalga
Mientras ella cabalga
Para mirar a mi amor
Mientras ella cabalga
Mientras ella cabalga
Mientras ella cabalga
Para mirar a mi amor
Mientras ella cabalga
