La Paloma Adieu
Mireille Mathieu
La Paloma Goodbye
When the sun sinks into the sea as red as ruby
A song from times past echoes in our hearts
The song tells of someone who boarded a ship
And there he said a farewell to his beloved
Don't cry if I don't return one day!
Find someone else, don't take it too hard!
And a white dove will then fly to you
Bringing a final greeting over the sea from me
La Paloma goodbye!
Like the rolling sea
Life is a coming and going
And who can ever understand it?
La Paloma goodbye!
Like the rolling sea
Life is a coming and going
And who can ever understand it?
She looked out to the dock every morning with questions in her eyes
His boat La Paloma was never there again
And a white dove flew over the sea!
Then she knew, there is no return!
La Paloma goodbye!
Like the rolling sea
Life is a coming and going
But who can ever understand it?
La Paloma goodbye!
Like the rolling sea
Life is a coming and going
But who can ever understand it?
