Eu quero che tanto
E ainda non lo sabes
Eu quero che tanto
Terra do meu pai

Quero as tuas ribeiras 
Que me fan lembrare
Os teus ollos tristes 
Que me fan me chorare

Un canto a Galicia, hey
Terra do meu pai
Un canto a Galicia, hey
Miña terra nai

Teño morriña, hey
Teño saudade
Porque estou lonxe 
De eses teus lares

Eu quero che tanto
E ainda non lo sabes
Eu quero che tanto
Terra do meu pai

Quero as tuas ribeiras 
Que me fan lembrare
Os teus ollos tristes 
Que fan me chorare

Un canto a Galicia, hey
Terra do meu pai
Un canto a Galicia, hey
Miña terra nai

Teño morriña, hey
Teño saudade
Porque estou lonxe 
De eses teus lares

Teño morriña, teño saudade
Porque estou lonxe 
De eses teus lares
De eses teus lares
De eses teus lares
Tenho morriña! Teño saudade!
Teño morriña! Teño saudade!

Porque estou lonxe 
De eses teus lares
De eses teus lares
De esos teus lares
Teño morriña! Teño saudade!

Un canto a Galicia, hey
Terra do meu pai
Un canto a Galicia, hey
Miña terra nai

Un canto a Galicia, hey
Terra do meu pai
Un canto a Galicia, hey

One month ago today
I was happy as a lark
But now I go for walks
To the movies, maybe to the park
I have a seat on the same old bench
To watch the children play, huh
You know tomorrow is their future
But for me just another day
They all gather 'round me, huh
They seem to know my name
We laugh, tell a few jokes
But it still doesn't ease my pain
I know I can't hide from a memory
Though day after day I've tried
I keep sayin' she'll be back
But today again I've lied
Oh, I see her face everywhere I go
On the street and even at the picture show
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her
Oh, I hear her voice as the cold winds blow
In the sweet music on my radio
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her
Why, oh, why
Did she have to leave and go away
I've been used to havin' someone to lean on
And I'm lost, baby, I'm lost
Oh, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her (tell me have you seen her)
Oh, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her (tell me have you seen her)
Oh, she left her kiss upon my lips
But left that break within my heart
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her
Oh, I see her hand reaching out to me
Only she can set me free
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her
Why, oh, why
Did she have to leave and go away
I've been used to havin' someone to lean on
And I'm lost, baby, I'm lost
Oh, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her (tell me have you seen her)
As another day comes to an end
I'm lookin' for a letter or somethin'
Anything that she would send
With all the people I know, hmm
I'm still a lonely man
You know it's funny
I thought I had her in the palm of my hand
(Have you seen her)
Tell me have you seen her (tell me have you seen her)
Oh doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Have you seen her (have you seen her)
Tell me have you seen her (have you seen her)
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her (tell me have you seen her)
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her (tell me have you seen her)
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her (tell me have you seen her)
Have you seen her
Tell me have you seen her (tell me have you seen her)

Drinking in the morning sun
Blinking in the morning sun
Shaking off the heavy one
Heavy like a loaded gun

What made me behave that way?
Using words I never say
I can only think it must be love
Oh, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day

Someone tell me how I feel
It's silly wrong but vivid right
Oh, kiss me like the final meal
Yeah, kiss me like we die tonight

Cause holy cow, I love your eyes
And only now I see the light
Yeah, lying with me half awake
Oh, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day

When my face is chamois-creased
If you think I'll wink, I did
Laugh politely at repeats
Yeah, kiss me when my lips are thin

Cause holy cow, I love your eyes
And only now I see you like
Yeah, lying with me half awake
Stumbling over what to say
Well, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day

Throw those curtains wide!
One day like this a year'd see me right
Throw those curtains wide!
One day like this a year'd we'll sing it right
