Paloma Ajena

Stray Dove

Paloma Ajena

She appeared at my windowSe apareció en mi ventana
I welcomed her with so much loveLa acogí con mucho amor
She wouldn’t take flight, she was shyNo alzaba vuelo, era huraña
I felt like her protectorMe sentí su protector
She was mineYa era mía
She was mineYa era mía

Every day I took care of herTodos los días cuidaba de ella
Showering her with my loveProdigándole mi amor
When suddenly, one morningCuando, de pronto, una mañana
She took off and flew awayAlzando vuelo, se marchó
She had a masterTenía dueño
She had a masterTenía dueño
Oh, what pain!¡Ay, qué dolor!

You’re gonna suffer, you’re gonna cry when you rememberVas a sufrir, vas a llorar cuando te acuerdes
Stray dove, I thought you were goodPaloma ajena, te creí buena
Now you’re leaving and leaving me with my sorrowAhora te marchas y me dejas con mi pena

You’re gonna suffer, you’re gonna cry when you rememberVas a sufrir, vas a llorar cuando te acuerdes
Stray dove, I thought you were goodPaloma ajena, te creí buena
Now you’re leaving and leaving me with my sorrowAhora te marchas y me dejas con mi pena
