The Long Road Home
The Long Road HomeTranslation Denis Renaud
We rode on three-horse sleigh with bells a-jingling,
In the distance glimmering firelights.
And if I were now behind you riding,
It would make my lonely heart feel right.
We drove the long road home, we drove by light of moon,
With song that flew, ringing far into the night.
And with that seven-string, with that old guitar tune
That tortured me so sweetly all those nights.
But, it turns out that we sang for nothing.
Vainly, night after starry night we burned.
And if we have finished with the old then,
Those nights have gone and never to return.
By new roads, a long way home a-traveling,
We are fated from now on to go.
On three horse open sleigh with bells a-jingling,
We used to ride a long long time ago!
