Before You Were Born
Before you were born, you had it all
All the love and riches in the world
Before you were born, you'd fly along the wind
Then you were born,
And now you want it all back again
Before you were born you had no fears
The sun was your smile and the rain was your tears
And nothing grew without the rain
And your smile would never end
Then you were born,
And now you want it all back again
I'll tell you this, I'm glad you were born
I'll drink another to you as I light my cigarette
Throw another log on desire
And play that mandolin
This chance won't come again
Antes de que nacieras
Antes de que nacieras, lo tenías todo
Todo el amor y riquezas del mundo
Antes de que nacieras, volabas con el viento
Luego naciste,
Y ahora lo quieres todo de vuelta
Antes de que nacieras no tenías miedos
El sol era tu sonrisa y la lluvia tus lágrimas
Y nada crecía sin la lluvia
Y tu sonrisa nunca se acababa
Luego naciste,
Y ahora lo quieres todo de vuelta
Te diré esto, me alegra que hayas nacido
Brindaré por ti mientras enciendo mi cigarrillo
Echaré más leña al deseo
Y tocaré ese mandolín
Esta oportunidad no volverá
