(At least I think it was by the Temptations; theirs is the earliest-dated recording on YouTube.)
Here's the Rare Earth lyrics:
Your love is fading,
And I feel it fade.
I said your love is fading;
Woman I feel it fade.
Your love is fading,
And I can feel it fade.
Woman, woman your touch, your touch has grown cold,
As if someone else controls your very soul.
I've fooled myself for as long as I can;
I can feel the presence of another man.
Yeah he's there when you speak my name; it's just not the same.
Oh baby, I'm losing you.
It's in the the air; it's there everywhere.
Baby, baby, baby, I'm losing you
When I look into your eyes,
The reflection of a face I see;
I'm hurt, downhearted, and worried, girl,
'Cause that face doesn't belong to me.
It's all over your face:
Someone's taken my place!
Oh Baby I'm losing you.
You try hard to hide the emptiness you feel inside.
But I can tell, I'm losing you.
*
I can't stand the thought of losing you.
Woman, can't you see what I'm going through?
I'm losing my mind, I'm losing my mind,
And it's all because of you;
I can't stand the thought of losing you.
I'm losing my mind, I'm losing my mind,
And it's all because of you;
I can't stand the thought of losing you.
Your love is fading.
Fading away from me.
Fading, fading away from me.
Fading, fading away from me.
Fading, fading away, fading away.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* The Temptations lyrics include the following extra verse instead:
I don't wanna lose you.
I can tell when we kiss, the tenderness I miss;
Oh, little girl, I'm losing you
Girl I can feel it in my bones: Anyday you'll be up and gone
Oh Baby, I'm losing you
Oh my dear, what happened to the love we shared?
oh oh baby I'm losing you
I know It's true there's someone new
Oh oh girl I'm losing you

Spanish (INCOMPLETE):
Tu amor se desvanece,
Y siento que se desvanece.
Dije que tu amor se desvanece;
Mujer, siento que desvanece.
Tu amor se desvanece,
Y yo puedo sentir que se desvanece.
Mujer, mujer, tu toque, tu toque se ha enfriado,
Como si alguien más controlara tu propia alma.
Me engañé a mí mismo tanto como puedo;
Yo puedo sentir la presencia de otro hombre.
Sí, él está allí cuando dices mi nombre; simplemente no es lo mismo.
Oh nena, te pierdo.
Está en el aire; está ahí por todos lados.
Nena, nena, nena, te pierdo.
Cuando te veo a los ojos,
El reflejo de mi cara veo;
Estoy herido, alicaído y preocupado, chica,
Porque esa cara no me pertenece.
Está por toda tu cara:
¡Alguien ha tomado mi lugar!
Oh nena, te pierdo.
Tratas de ocultar con ganas el vacío que sientes por dentro.
Pero te puedo decir que te pierdo.
*
No soporto la idea de perderte.
Mujer, ¿no puedes ver por lo que estoy pasando?
Pierdo mi cordura, pierdo mi cordura,
Y se debe todo a ti;
No soporto la idea de perderte.
Pierdo mi cordura, pierdo mi cordura,
Y se debe todo a ti;
No soporto la idea de perderte.
Tu amor se desvanece.
Fading away from me.
Fading, fading away from me.
Fading, fading away from me.
Fading, fading away, fading away.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No quiero perderte.
Puedo darme cuenta, cuando nos besamos, de toda la ternura que me pierdo;
Oh, nenita, te pierdo
Nena, puedo sentirlo en mis huesos: en cualquier día tú te habrías ido.
Oh nena, te pierdo.
Oh mi amor, ¿qué pasó con el amor que compartíamos?
Oh, oh nena, te pierdo.
Sé que es verdad que hay alguien más,
Oh oh nena, te pierdo. _________________ Seos nivo adgene Kizne tikelke

Thanks for the Spanish, Kyonides.

Eldin, that seems like a shoutout specifically to me, since I don't know if anyone else could translate it to Latvian. Whatever the case, I will look at it and maybe translate it, when I have some time  |
