As Tears Go By (originale)

It is the evening of the day,
I sit and watch the children play.
Smiling faces I can see
But not for me,
I sit and watch as tears go by.
My riches can’t buy everything,
I want to hear the children sing.
All I hear is the sound
Of rain falling on the ground,
I sit and watch as tears go by.
It is the evening of the day,
I sit and watch the children play.
Doing things I used to do They think are new,
I sit and watch as tears go by.

Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm …

(traduzione)

È la sera del giorno,
Mi siedo e guardo i bambini giocare.
Riesco a vedere facce sorridenti
Ma non per me,
Mi siedo e guardo le lacrime scorrere.
Le mie ricchezze non possono comprare tutto,
Voglio sentire i bambini cantare.
Tutto quello che sento è il suono
Di pioggia che cade a terra,
Mi siedo e guardo le lacrime scorrere.
È la sera del giorno,
Mi siedo e guardo i bambini giocare.
Fare cose che facevo Pensano siano nuove,
Mi siedo e guardo le lacrime scorrere.

Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
