Es un largo camino a casa

It's Such A Long Way Home

Sentado junto a la ventana de este hotel en ruinas,Sitting by the window of this broken-down hotel,
Intentando escribir una carta solo para mostrarte que estoy bien,Trying to write a letter just to show you that I'm well,
Pero he estado observando a todas las personas mientras cruzan el mercado,But I've been watching all the people as they cross the marketplace,
Y aunque realmente no hay razón, he estado buscando tu rostro,And though there really is no reason, I've been looking for your face,

Es un largo camino a casa,It's such a long way home,
Es un largo camino a casa;It's such a long way home;
Es un largo camino;It's such a long way;

Parado junto al avión, ella me abrazó,Standing by the aeroplane she held me in her arms,
Y luego susurró 'Oh querido Señor, no permitas que le pase nada',And then she whispered "Oh dear Lord don't let him come to any harm"
Y al girar para volar, la vi parada sola,And as we turned to fly away I saw her standing on her own,
Parecía que su mano no estaba diciendo adiós, sino 'Por favor, ven a casa',It seemed her hand was waving not goodbye but "Please come home",

Es un largo camino a casa,It's such a long way home,
Es un largo camino a casa,It's such a long way home,
Es un largo camino;It's such a long way;

Oh tantas personas tienen que viajar lejos,Oh so many people have to travel away,
De quienes aman y necesitan,From the ones that they love and they need,
Pero quiero decirte que toda tu vida,But I want to tell you that all your life,
Puedes depender de mí;You can depend on me;

A lo lejos, un saxofón se aferra a una melodía,Far away a saxophone lingers on a tune,
Y es el tipo de canción que alguien escribió para amantes y una luna,And it's the kind of song that someone wrote for lovers and a moon,
Y cuando la banda comienza a tocarla, con un sobresalto me doy cuenta,And as the band begins to play it, with a shock I realize,
Que es una canción que cantamos juntos y casi me hace llorar,That it's a song we sang together and it nearly makes me cry,

Es un largo camino a casa,It's such a long way home,
Es un largo camino a casa,It's such a long way home,
Es un largo camino a casa,It's such a long way home
Es un largo camino, sí, un largo camino a casa.It's such a long way, yes, such a long way home.
