Γροθιά [Grothia] [English translation]

I couldn't stop thinking of you

the night wouldn't pass

My time on guard duty

seemed like a century

Driving from Corinth to Athens

I almost killed myself

The only thing that mattered

was to see you

Your mother told me you were

at our usual place

without taking off my uniform

I rushed to meet you

Like a punch in the stomach

was the spectacle I saw

my breath was cut like a thread

Like a punch in the stomach

was the spectacle I saw

like a knife stabbed in me

deeply, deeply

I hurried to get out

so that you wouldn't see me

Like a phantom I walked

around the streets until 3:00 am

Two guys in military uniforms

stopped me

and asked to check my pass

and I was speechless

Fifteen more days of service

thanks to you

The only thing in my mind

will be you again
