Θέλω να γυρίσω [Thelo na giriso] [English translation]

I've put for the first time ever

some big bet

that where we grew up

we've learned something else.

I've learned from school

not only how to count

the children in my neighbourhood

have learned how to love.

If you hear some voices

the night in your dreams

then remember the square

in your old neighbourhood

or the (piece of land where children used to play in the big cities) with the rocks

a little bit over Thivon (avenue)

the one that now has become

a toy factory

I remember still more, trips

and the best hide-out

with our bikes secretly (we were going)

from Agia Varvara to Drapetsona (they are neighbourhoods of Piraeus)

To (the church of )St.Dionisios I got drunk

with two friends a Wednesday

and a pretty good chick

that eventually she was not that good

I grow up and I forget

only the bad people

Those that spoke with curses

because they never learned manners.

But I never forget

my old neighbourhood

because on the bench of the square

I have curved my dreams.

I want to go back to the old (places)

I want to go back to my old neighbourhood

I want to go back to find you

one night is enough

I'm going a stroll to the old (places)

to Nikaia,to Kokkinia (neighbourhoods of Piraeus)

I will drink wine and get drunk

I will stay all night in Piraeus

I grew up,I longed

the things I left behind

My heart you are alone

this night melts me

I want to go back to...
