( 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,    May God be with you my love . . .       Now, the village mission bells are softly ringing,    If you listen with your heart you'll hear them singing ( . . . singing! )    Vaya Con Dios, my darling,    May God be with you my love . . .       Where ever you may be, I'll be beside you ( . . . beside you! )    Although you're many million miles away!    Each night I'll say a prayer, a prayer to guide you ( . . . to guide you! )    To hasten every lonely hour of every lonely day . . .       Now, the dawn is breaking through a gray tomorrow,    But the memories we share are there to borrow ( . . . no sorrow! )    Vaya Con Dios, my darling,    May God be with you my love . . .       Vaya Con Dios, my darling,    May God be with you my love . . .       ( Now the time has come to say goodbye! )       Words and Music by Larry Russell, Buddy Pepper    and Inez James, 1953
