lyrics

scroll for english

Όλος ο κόσμος να ‘ναι δω και μια ψυχή να λείπει
ο τόπος μοιάζει αδειανός και έρημο το σπίτι

Συ μου ‘μαθες πως αγαπούν πως παίζουν πως γελούνε
μάθε μου τώρα δυο καρδιές πως ζουν σα χωριστούνε

Το μονοπάτι της ζωής σ’ ένα γκρεμό τελειώνει
μα α’ που ‘χει στην ψυχή φτερά τ’ ανοίγει και γλιτώνει

english translation

Even if all the world is here but a soul is missing
the place looks empty and the house deserted

It was you that taught me how to love, how to play and laugh
Can you teach me now how two hearts can live once separated?

The path of life ends in a hard precipice
but he who has wings in his soul opens them and escapes
