Como El Álamo Al Camino
Rondalla de Saltillo
Like The Poplar By The Road
Like the poplar by the road,
The star at nightfall;
Like the willow is to the river,
My love was faithful to your love.
You walked by my side
On paths yet to be made,
With no other footprints but mine,
With no other strength but my faith.
And what happened to that love
And what happened to our yesterday,
That I can no longer be without you,
That I can no longer live,
I don't know who I am, or what I will be,
Where I'm going, or where I'll go.
'I love you tenderly
And your love is like lips to a kiss
You are the half of my soul
And so in the distance, I remain yours
And even beyond oblivion.'
And what happened to that love
And what happened to our yesterday,
That I can no longer be without you,
That I can no longer live,
I don't know who I am, or what I will be,
Where I'm going, or where I'll go.
Like the poplar by the road,
The star at nightfall;
In my soul, I keep a place
In case you want to
Return.
