Vaya Con Dios
( May God Be With
You )
( Now the
hacienda's dark, the town is sleeping,
Now the time
has come to part,
The time for
weeping! )
Vaya Con Dios, my
darling,
May God be with you my love
. . .
Now, the village mission
bells are softly ringing,
If you listen with your
heart
you'll hear them singing
(
. . . singing! )
Vaya Con Dios, my
darling,
May God be with you my love
. . .
Where ever you may be,
I'll
be beside you (
. . . beside you! )
Although you're many
million miles away!
Each night I'll say a
prayer,
a prayer to guide you
(
. . . to guide you! )
To hasten every lonely hour
of every lonely day . . .
Now, the dawn is breaking
through a gray tomorrow,
But the memories we share
are there to borrow
(
. . . no sorrow! )
Vaya Con Dios, my
darling,
May God be with you my love
. . .
Vaya Con Dios, my
darling,
May God be with you my love
. . .
( Now the
time has come to
say goodbye! )
