El Manzano

The Apple Tree
I've left you waiting in the garden
A few rays of sun that I found
They'll light up your evening
When my eyes can no longer see you
To the apple tree growing in your yard
I've asked for a magical favor
That its sweet fruits have the power
To chase away all bitterness in you
So you won't cry, my love
So you won't cry
When I leave, my love
So you won't cry
Work is hard to come by here
I’ll have to move to the city
A camp or anywhere else
Just remember that I love you
And in that gray city where I must go
To find work to survive
Missing you will be my breath
Wait for me, I’ll come back for you
So you won't cry, my love
So you won't cry
When I leave, my love
So you won't cry
