Life Goes By

La Vida Pasa

They see her passLa ven pasar
From corner to cornerDe esquina a esquina
Her walkSu caminar
Men lookLos hombres miran
Her youthSu juventud
They want to haveQuieren tener

She offers itElla la ofrece
No matter whoNo importa quien
From a blue carDe un coche azul
The door opensSe abre la puerta
Without hesitationSin titubear
She approachesElla se acerca
It's a manEs un señor
She goes with himSe va con él
IndifferentIndiferente
Life goes byLa vida pasa

And she writes in her letters to her familyY ella le escribe en sus cartas a su familia
That she is the secretary of the boss of an officeQue es secretaria del jefe de una oficina
That it's a very good job, everyone wants herQue es un trabajo muy bueno, todos la quieren
That she will send money next monthQue va mandar un dinero el mes que viene
That she misses home a lot and loves themQue extraña mucho la casa y que los quiere

They see her passLa ven pasar
In the early morningDe madrugada
Her youthSu juventud
Looks tiredSe ve cansada
The realityLa realidad
Her lonelinessSu soledad
IndifferentIndiferente
Life goes byLa vida pasa

And she writes in her letters to her familyY ella le escribe en sus cartas a su familia
That she is the secretary of the boss of an officeQue es secretaria del jefe de una oficina
That it's a very good job, everyone wants herQue es un trabajo muy bueno, todos la quieren
That she will send money next monthQue va mandar un dinero el mes que viene
That she misses home a lot and loves themQue extraña mucho la casa y que los quiere
