vaya con dios

now the hacienda's dark

the town is sleeping

now the time has come to part

the time for weeping

vaya con dios

my darling

vaya con dios

my love

now

the village mission bells are softly ringing

just listen with your heart

you'll hear them singing

vaya con dios

my darling

vaya con dios

my love

wherever you may be

darling

i'll be beside you

although you're many

many million dreams away

each night i'll say a prayer

a prayer to guide you

to hasten every lonely hour of every lonely day

now the dawn is breaking through a lonely tomorrow

i weep as i wait for your return

i wait in sorrow

vaya con dios

my darling

vaya con dios

my love
