LYRICS – ΣΤΟΙΧΟΙ

Μια κάμαρα γεμάτη σκιες,
σεντόνια που μυρίζουν χτες,
γεμάτα όμορφες στιγμές, με σένα.
Στο ράδιο πάλι μουσική,
θαρρείς κι’είσαι ακόμα στη ζωή,
σαν τίποτα να’χει συμβεί, κι’εγώ πονάω.


Σε πήρε η μοίρα μια βραδιά
μεσ’απ τη δική μου αγκαλιά,
κι απ’ το πρωί στη μοναξιά, σε χάνω.
Μια κάμαρα πάντα σκοτινή
είν’ότι έχω στη ζωή,
σαν μνήμη τόσο μακρινή, σε χάνω.

Κι’ ο ήλιος βγήκε όπως πάντα,
οι ακτίνες χορεύουν στη βεράντα
δεν ξέρουν έφυγες για πάντα, αγάπη μου.
Πέρασε κι η Πρωτοχρονιά,
τ’άνθη στεγνώσαν στα κλαδιά,
σαράντα μέρες περάσαν πια, δίχως εσένα.


Φεύγει ο χρόνος θα περάσει,
η πρωτοχρονιά θα σε ξεχάσει,
και τ’όμορφο χαμογελό σου δεν θα γεράσει.

Ζης στη πορεία του καιρού,
στο καρδιοχτύπι ενός παιδιού,
στα λόγια και στα όνειρά μας, ζης.
Ζης στης κιθάρας της χορδές,
της ζωής μας ήσουν το χτες,
στων αστεριών τις φεγγοβολές, Θα ζης

TRANSLATION

SHADOWS

A room full of shadows
sheets that smell of yesterday
full of beautiful moments with you
Music on the radio
as if you are still alive
like nothing has occurred and I am in pain

(REFRAIN)
Destiny took you
from within my embrace
and in the morning I lose you to loneliness
A room full of shadows is all I have in life
like a memory so far away, I lose you

And the sun comes up as always
its rays shining on the verandah,
Not knowing that you have gone forever, my love
The New Year has come and gone,
the flowers have dried on the stems,
forty days have passed without you

Time goes , it will pass,
the new year will forget you,
but your beautiful smile will never grow old.


You live in the passing of the time,
Within the heartbeat of a child,
in our words and in our dreams you live
You live in the strings of this guitar,
You were our “yesterday” ,
in the rays of the shining stars you will live.
