Don't Pass Me By

I LISTEN FOR YOUR FOOTSTEPS COMING UP THE DRIVE,
LISTEN FOR YOUR FOOTSTEPS, BUT THEY DON'T ARRIVE.
WAITING FOR YOUR KNOCK, DEAR, ON MY OLD FRONT DOOR;
I DON'T HEAR IT.
DOES IT MEAN YOU DON'T LOVE ME ANY MORE?

I HEAR THE CLOCK A-TICKING ON THE MANTLE SHELF,
SEE THE HANDS A-MOVING, BUT I'M BY MYSELF.
I WONDER WHERE YOU ARE TONIGHT AND WHY I'M BY MYSELF;
I DON'T SEE YOU.
DOES IT MEAN YOU DON'T LOVE ME ANY MORE?

DON'T PASS ME BY,
DON'T MAKE ME CRY,
DON'T MAKE ME BLUE,
'CAUSE YOU KNOW, DARLING, I LOVE ONLY YOU.
YOU'LL NEVER KNOW IT HURT ME SO,
HOW I HATE TO SEE YOU GO;
DON'T PASS ME BY,
DON'T MAKE ME CRY.

I'M SORRY THAT I DOUBTED YOU, I WAS SO UNFAIR.
YOU WERE IN A CAR CRASH AND YOU LOST YOUR HAIR.
YOU SAID THAT YOU WOULD BE LATE, ABOUT AN HOUR OR TWO,
I SAID, THAT'S ALRIGHT, I'M WAITING HERE,
JUST WAITING TO HEAR FROM YOU.

DON'T PASS ME BY,
DON'T MAKE ME CRY,
DON'T MAKE ME BLUE,
'CAUSE YOU KNOW, DARLING, I LOVE ONLY YOU.
YOU'LL NEVER KNOW IT HURT ME SO,
HOW I HATE TO SEE YOU GO;
DON'T PASS ME BY,
DON'T MAKE ME CRY.

(One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight... mm)

DON'T PASS ME BY,
DON'T MAKE ME CRY,
DON'T MAKE ME BLUE,
'CAUSE YOU KNOW, DARLING, I LOVE ONLY YOU.
YOU'LL NEVER KNOW IT HURT ME SO,
HOW I HATE TO SEE YOU GO;
DON'T PASS ME BY,
DON'T MAKE ME CRY.

ESCUCHO POR SI OIGO TUS PASOS POR EL CAMINO,
ESCUCHO POR SI OIGO TUS PASOS, PERO NO LLEGAN.
ESPERO A VER SI TE OIGO LLAMAR, CARIÑO, A MI VIEJA PUERTA;
NO OIGO NADA.
¿ESO ES QUE YA NO ME QUIERES?

OIGO EL TIC-TAC DEL RELOJ SOBRE LA CHIMENEA,
VEO MOVERSE LAS MANILLAS, PERO ESTOY SOLO.
ME PREGUNTO DÓNDE ESTARÁS ESTA NOCHE, Y POR QUÉ ESTOY SOLO;
NO TE VEO.
¿ESO ES QUE YA NO ME QUIERES?

NO PASES DE MÍ,
NO ME HAGAS LLORAR,
NO ME PONGAS TRISTE,
PORQUE YA SABES, CARIÑO, QUE SOLO TE QUIERO A TI.
NO SABES QUÉ DAÑO ME HIZO,
CÓMO ODIO QUE ME DEJES;
NO ME DEJES DE LADO,
NO ME HAGAS LLORAR.

SIENTO HABER DUDADO DE TI, FUI MUY INJUSTO.
ESTUVISTE EN UN ACCIDENTE DE COCHE Y PERDISTE EL PELO.
DIJISTE QUE LLEGARÍAS TARDE, UNA HORA O DOS,
TE DIJE: "VALE, TE ESPERO AQUÍ,
AQUÍ ESPERANDO A SABER DE TI".

NO PASES DE MÍ,
NO ME HAGAS LLORAR,
NO ME PONGAS TRISTE,
PORQUE YA SABES, CARIÑO, QUE SOLO TE QUIERO A TI.
NO SABES QUÉ DAÑO ME HIZO,
CÓMO ODIO QUE ME DEJES;
NO ME DEJES DE LADO,
NO ME HAGAS LLORAR.

(Uno, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco, seis, siete, ocho... mm)

NO PASES DE MÍ,
NO ME HAGAS LLORAR,
NO ME PONGAS TRISTE,
PORQUE YA SABES, CARIÑO, QUE SOLO TE QUIERO A TI.
NO SABES QUÉ DAÑO ME HIZO,
CÓMO ODIO QUE ME DEJES;
NO ME DEJES DE LADO,
NO ME HAGAS LLORAR.
