Emeis
Anna Vissi feat. Nikos Karvelas Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Έφτασε η ώρα να χωρίσουμε
την αγάπη που 'χαμε να σβήσουμε εγώ κι εσύ
Έφτασε η ώρα να γκρεμίσουμε
όλα αυτά που χρόνια τώρα χτίζαμε εγώ κι εσύ.

Έφτασε η ώρα να ξεχάσουμε
μαζί που λέγαμε πως θα γεράσουμε
μα πες μου ότι είναι ψέματα όλα

πες μου ότι είναι ψέματα

Εμείς, δεν μπορεί να χωρίσουμε
εμείς μια ζωή θ' αγαπιόμαστε
εμείς δεν μπορεί να τελειώσουμε έτσι
κάπως, κάπου, κάποιο λάθος κάνουμε εμείς.

Έφτασε η ώρα να χωρίσουμε,
πίσω μας ότι είχαμε να αφήσουμε εγώ κι εσύ.

Έφτασε η ώρα που φοβόμαστε,
σαν 2 ξένοι πια θα συναντιόμαστε εγώ κι εσύ
Έφτασε η ώρα μας να κλάψουμε,
τέλος στο βιβλίο μας να γράψουμε.

Μα πες μου ότι είναι ψέματα όλα,
πες μου ότι είναι ψέματα.
