about

We almost didn't find this one because Tony Rais was credited as "Mr. Raïz" on the cover, but we know it's him because his photo is displayed. We also don't know what year this was released.

lyrics

Από καπρίτσιο κάποιο βράδυ χωριστήκανε
Ποτέ να μη μιλήσουν ορκιστήκανε.
Τα χέρια δώσανε για πάντα να χωρίσουν
Για την αγάπη πιά να μη μιλήσουν.

Πέρασαν χρόνια από τότε χωρισμένοι.
Περνούσαν μιά ζωή όπως δυό ξένοι,
Μα ‘κείνος όμως να ξεχάσει δεν μπορεί
Και σ’ένα γράμμα του παραληρεί:
Αν κάποτε θελήσεις
Στα πρώτα να γυρισεις,
Τα πρώτα να σκεφτείς,
Ποτέ μην φανταστείς
Πως ξέχασα την πρώτη μας ζωή.

Κί αν κάποτε θελήσεις
Ξανά να μου μιλήσεις
Με πόνο θα στο πω,
Ακόμα σ’αγαπώ
Κι ας νομιζες πώς είχες ξεχαστεί.

------------
Translation:

They broke up one night on a whim
And they swore never to speak again.
They shook hands to split up forever,
And to never speak of love again.

Many years passed since they separated,
They lived life as two strangers,
But he cannot forget
And in a letter he rambles:
If you ever wish,
To go back to those early days,
To think of our firsts
Don’t ever think
That I forgot about our first life.

And if you ever wish,
To speak to me again
With pain I will tell you
That I still love you
Even if you think you have been forgotten
