4th Day: Tears

On the 4th day of Christmas my true love said to me "TEARS" (by Chyi Yu, 齐豫).

Again, I must say that I simply love Chyi Yu's voice. Most often I preferred her rendition of certain songs to the original singers'.

This was originally a Spanish song named "Donde Voy "(Where I go), sung by Tish Hinojosa in 1989. Chyi Yu wrote the English lyrics and named in "Tears"..

Tears


All alone I have started my journey
To the darkness of darkness I go
With a reason, I stopped for a moment
In this world full of pleasure so frail
Town after town on I travel
Pass through faces I know and know not
Like a bird in flight, sometimes I topple
Time and time again, just farewells
Donde voy, donde voy
Day by day, my story unfolds
Solo estoy, solo estoy
All alone as the day I was born
Till your eyes rest in mine, I shall wander
No more darkness I know and know not
For your sweetness I traded my freedom
Not knowing a farewell awaits
You know, hearts can be repeatedly broken
Making room for the harrows to came
Along with my sorrows I buried
My tears,my smiles, your name
Donde voy, donde voy
Songs of lovetales I sing of no more
Solo estoy,solo estoy
Once again with my shadows I roam
Donde voy, donde voy
All alone as the day I was born
Solo estoy, solo estoy
Still alone with my shadows I roam
