Dearest Anne

Back on the road once moreDe vuelta en la carretera una vez más

And who knows what will lie in storeY quién sabe qué nos deparará el destino

For you, dearest AnnePara ti, querida Anne

Better the highway codeMejor el código de la carretera

Than being secure behind closed doorsQue estar seguro detrás de puertas cerradas

And dreaming, dearest AnneY soñando, querida Anne

Carry your faith like a jewel among thievesLleva tu fe como una joya entre ladrones

May your soul shine out brightlyQue tu alma brille intensamente

And quite politelyY muy cortésmente

You'll bring them to their knees, dear AnneLos harás caer de rodillas, querida Anne

Long may the road and the wind and the rain still beQue la carretera, el viento y la lluvia sigan estando

behind youdetrás de ti

Til you change your mind again, dearest AnneHasta que cambies de opinión de nuevo, querida Anne

Wish I was with you walking by your sideDesearía estar contigo caminando a tu lado

Wish I was young again to see it through your eyesDesearía ser joven de nuevo para verlo a través de tus ojos

But I'm old and I've relinquished, nearly extinguishedPero soy viejo y he renunciado, casi extinguido

The burning need for surprises in my lifeLa ardiente necesidad de sorpresas en mi vida

Long may the road and the wind and the rain still beQue la carretera, el viento y la lluvia sigan estando

behind youdetrás de ti

Til you change your mind, dearest AnneHasta que cambies de opinión, querida Anne

Long may the road and wind be with you in your needQue la carretera y el viento estén contigo en tu necesidad

And the changing seasonsY las estaciones cambiantes

And the freedomY la libertad

To believe the truth they breatheDe creer en la verdad que respiran

As long as the road is not your guideMientras la carretera no sea tu guía

And you realize that it's just an escape, dearest AnneY te des cuenta de que es solo una escapatoria, querida Anne

Wish I was with you walking by your sideDesearía estar contigo caminando a tu lado

Wish I was young again to see it through your eyesDesearía ser joven de nuevo para verlo a través de tus ojos

But I'm old and I've relinquished, nearly extinguishedPero soy viejo y he renunciado, casi extinguido

The burning need for surprises in my lifeLa ardiente necesidad de sorpresas en mi vida

As long as the road is not your guideMientras la carretera no sea tu guía

And you realize that's just an escape, dearest AnneY te des cuenta de que es solo una escapatoria, querida Anne
