I Left a Woman Waiting

COHEN, SPECTOR

Lyrics Translation

I left a woman waiting
I met her sometime later
She said, I see your eyes are dead
What happened to you, lover?
What happened to you, my lover?
What happened to you, lover?
What happened to you?

And since she spoke the truth to me
I tried to answer truthfully
Whatever happened to my eyes
Happened to your beauty
Happened to your beauty
What happened to your beauty
Happened to me

We took ourselves to someone's bed
And there we fell together
Quick as dogs and truly dead were we
And free as running water
Free as running water
Free as running water
Free as you and me
The way it's got to be
The way it's got to be, lover

[Letra de "Leonard Cohen - I Left A Woman Waiting (Traducción al Español)"]

Dejé a una mujer esperándome
Me la encontré un tiempo después
Me dijo, "Veo que tus ojos están muertos"

"¿Qué ha ocurrido contigo, amante?
¿Qué ha ocurrido contigo, mi amante?
¿Qué ha ocurrido contigo, amante?
¿Qué ha ocurrido contigo?"

Y como ella dijo la verdad
Traté de responder honestamente:
"Lo que le haya ocurrido a mis ojos,"

"Le ocurrió a tu belleza
Le ocurrió a tu belleza
Lo que le ocurrió a tu belleza
Me ocurrió a mí"

Nos fuimos a la cama de alguien más
Y ahí caímos juntos
Con prisa como perros y verdadеramente
Muertos еstábamos

Y libres como corriendo
Libres como agua corriendo
Libres como agua corriendo
Libres como tú y yo

"La forma en que debe ser
La forma en que debe ser, amante"
