Mou les gia thalasses kai ploia, kai i kardia mou san pouli
Mesa ston korfo sou sopainei, ki opou ki an pas s’ akolouthei
Mesa ston korfo sou sopainei, ki opou ki an pas s’ akolouthei
Tha kleiso ola ta limania
Kai tous stathmous mi mou chatheis
To nou sou tha ton fylakiso
Na papseis pia na nostalgeis
To nou sou tha ton fylakiso
Na papseis pia na nostalgeis
Mou les gia trena pou olo fevgoun, kai gia tsinganous pou kinoun
Ki ego ta matia sou diavazo, na do pou trechoun pou gyrnoun
Ki ego ta matia sou diavazo, na do pou trechoun pou gyrnoun
Tha kleiso ola ta limania
Kai tous stathmous mi mou chatheis
To nou sou tha ton fylakiso
Na papseis pia na nostalgeis
To nou sou tha ton fylakiso
Na papseis pia na nostalgeis
Tha kleiso ola ta limania
Kai tous stathmous mi mou chatheis
To nou sou tha ton fylakiso
Na papseis pia na nostalgeis
To nou sou tha ton fylakiso
Na papseis pia na nostalgeis
You tell me about seas and ships, and my heart like a bird
In your bosom hushes, and wherever you go, it follows you
In your bosom hushes, and wherever you go, it follows you
I’ll close all the ports
And the stations so that you won’t be lost from me
Your mind I’ll imprison
So that you cease feeling nostalgia any longer
Your mind I’ll imprison
So that you cease feeling nostalgia any longer
You tell me about trains that keep leaving, and gypsies that move
And I read your eyes, to see where they run, where they wander
And I read your eyes, to see where they run, where they wander
I’ll close all the ports
And the stations so that you won’t be lost from me
Your mind I’ll imprison
So that you cease feeling nostalgia any longer
Your mind I’ll imprison
So that you cease feeling nostalgia any longer
I’ll close all the ports
And the stations so that you won’t be lost from me
Your mind I’ll imprison
So that you cease feeling nostalgia any longer
Your mind I’ll imprison
So that you cease feeling nostalgia any longer
