Dreams of the San Joaquin
Jack Wesley Routh, Randy L Sharp
One, two, three, four
I'm sending you some money, I wish it could be more
But it's harder than I thought to find the work I came here for
This place is just as pretty as I pictured it to be
But a man in need of work's an all too common sight to see
Each morning as the trucks roll in the lucky few climb on
The rest of us are left to wonder where the dream has gone
Where the dream has gone
They say the Sierras melt with the rain
And race through the valley like blood through the vein
Turning the lowland from golden to green
To harvest forever our dreams of the San Joaquin
Every day I struggle with the distance and the fear
That I will not return or find a way to bring you here
My emptiness grows deeper
My spirit starts to fall
As night comes like a blanket that brings no sleep at all
Only hope that time will find a way to work things out
That we may be together in this life we dream about
This life we dream about
They say the sierras (dicen que la sierra)
Melt with the rain (con la lluvia)
And race through the valley (y corre por el valle)
Like blood through the vein (como la sangre)
Turning the lowland (cambia la sierras)
From golden to green (dorado al verde)
To harvest forever
Our dreams of the San Joaquin (los sueños de San Joaquín)
We'll harvest forever (to harvest forever)
In dreams of the San Joaquin
One, two, three, four
Uno, dos, tres, cuatro
I'm sending you some money, I wish it could be more
Te estoy enviando algo de dinero, desearía que pudiera ser más
But it's harder than I thought to find the work I came here for
Pero es más difícil de lo que pensaba encontrar el trabajo por el que vine aquí
This place is just as pretty as I pictured it to be
Este lugar es tan bonito como me lo imaginaba
But a man in need of work's an all too common sight to see
Pero un hombre necesitado de trabajo es una vista demasiado común para ver
Each morning as the trucks roll in the lucky few climb on
Cada mañana, cuando los camiones llegan, los pocos afortunados suben
The rest of us are left to wonder where the dream has gone
El resto de nosotros nos quedamos preguntándonos dónde se ha ido el sueño
Where the dream has gone
Dónde se ha ido el sueño
They say the Sierras melt with the rain
Dicen que las Sierras se derriten con la lluvia
And race through the valley like blood through the vein
Y corren por el valle como la sangre por la vena
Turning the lowland from golden to green
Convirtiendo la tierra baja de dorado a verde
To harvest forever our dreams of the San Joaquin
Para cosechar para siempre nuestros sueños del San Joaquín
Every day I struggle with the distance and the fear
Cada día lucho con la distancia y el miedo
That I will not return or find a way to bring you here
De que no volveré o encontraré una manera de traerte aquí
My emptiness grows deeper
Mi vacío se hace más profundo
My spirit starts to fall
Mi espíritu empieza a caer
As night comes like a blanket that brings no sleep at all
Como la noche llega como una manta que no trae sueño en absoluto
Only hope that time will find a way to work things out
Solo espero que el tiempo encuentre una manera de resolver las cosas
That we may be together in this life we dream about
Para que podamos estar juntos en esta vida de la que soñamos
This life we dream about
Esta vida de la que soñamos
They say the sierras (dicen que la sierra)
Dicen que las sierras (dicen que la sierra)
Melt with the rain (con la lluvia)
Se derriten con la lluvia (con la lluvia)
And race through the valley (y corre por el valle)
Y corren por el valle (y corre por el valle)
Like blood through the vein (como la sangre)
Como la sangre por la vena (como la sangre)
Turning the lowland (cambia la sierras)
Cambiando la tierra baja (cambia la sierras)
From golden to green (dorado al verde)
De dorado a verde (dorado al verde)
To harvest forever
Para cosechar para siempre
Our dreams of the San Joaquin (los sueños de San Joaquín)

But it's harder than I thought to find the work I came here for

This place is just as pretty as I pictured it to be
Este lugar é tão bonito quanto eu imaginei
But a man in need of work's an all too common sight to see
Mas um homem precisando de trabalho é algo muito comum de se ver
Each morning as the trucks roll in the lucky few climb on
Toda manhã, quando os caminhões chegam, os sortudos sobem
The rest of us are left to wonder where the dream has gone
O resto de nós fica se perguntando onde foi parar o sonho
Where the dream has gone
Onde foi parar o sonho
They say the Sierras melt with the rain
Dizem que as serras derretem com a chuva
And race through the valley like blood through the vein
E correm pelo vale como sangue pelas veias
Turning the lowland from golden to green
Transformando as terras baixas de dourado em verde
To harvest forever our dreams of the San Joaquin
Para colher para sempre nossos sonhos do San Joaquin
Every day I struggle with the distance and the fear
Todos os dias eu luto com a distância e o medo
That I will not return or find a way to bring you here
De não voltar ou encontrar um jeito de trazer você aqui
My emptiness grows deeper
Minha tristeza aumenta
My spirit starts to fall
Meu espírito começa a cair
As night comes like a blanket that brings no sleep at all
Enquanto a noite vem como um cobertor que não traz sono algum
Only hope that time will find a way to work things out
Só espero que o tempo encontre um jeito de resolver as coisas
That we may be together in this life we dream about
Para que possamos estar juntos nesta vida que sonhamos
This life we dream about
Nesta vida que sonhamos

Melt with the rain (con la lluvia)

E correm pelo vale (e correm pelo vale)
Like blood through the vein (como la sangre)
Como sangue pelas veias (como o sangre)
Turning the lowland (cambia la sierras)

Je t'envoie un peu d'argent, j'aimerais que ce soit plus
But it's harder than I thought to find the work I came here for
Mais c'est plus difficile que je ne le pensais de trouver le travail pour lequel je suis venu ici
This place is just as pretty as I pictured it to be
Cet endroit est aussi joli que je l'imaginais
But a man in need of work's an all too common sight to see
Mais un homme qui a besoin de travail est une vue trop commune à voir
Each morning as the trucks roll in the lucky few climb on
Chaque matin, lorsque les camions arrivent, quelques chanceux montent à bord
The rest of us are left to wonder where the dream has gone
Le reste d'entre nous se demande où le rêve est passé
Where the dream has gone

They say the Sierras melt with the rain
Ils disent que les Sierras fondent avec la pluie
And race through the valley like blood through the vein
Et courent à travers la vallée comme le sang dans les veines
Turning the lowland from golden to green
Transformant la plaine de doré à vert
To harvest forever our dreams of the San Joaquin
Pour récolter à jamais nos rêves du San Joaquin
Every day I struggle with the distance and the fear
Chaque jour, je lutte avec la distance et la peur
That I will not return or find a way to bring you here
Que je ne reviendrai pas ou que je trouverai un moyen de t'amener ici
My emptiness grows deeper
Mon vide devient plus profond
My spirit starts to fall
Mon esprit commence à tomber
As night comes like a blanket that brings no sleep at all

Only hope that time will find a way to work things out
Seulement l'espoir que le temps trouvera un moyen d'arranger les choses
That we may be together in this life we dream about

Aber es ist schwieriger als ich dachte, die Arbeit zu finden, für die ich hierher gekommen bin
This place is just as pretty as I pictured it to be
Dieser Ort ist genauso hübsch, wie ich ihn mir vorgestellt habe

Aber ein Mann, der Arbeit braucht, ist ein allzu gewohnter Anblick
Each morning as the trucks roll in the lucky few climb on
Jeden Morgen, wenn die Lastwagen hereinkommen, klettern die wenigen Glücklichen auf
The rest of us are left to wonder where the dream has gone
Der Rest von uns bleibt zurück und fragt sich, wo der Traum geblieben ist

They say the Sierras melt with the rain
Sie sagen, die Sierras schmelzen mit dem Regen
And race through the valley like blood through the vein
Und rasen durch das Tal wie Blut durch die Vene
Turning the lowland from golden to green
