Κάμω να σ' αλησμονήσω

Listen

Original Lyrics

Κάμω να σ' αλησμονήσω

Κάμω να σ’ αλησμονήσω, μα η καρδιά μου με πονεί
Σύ σ’ η πρώτη μου αγάπη, σύ ’σαι η παντοτινή
Κάμω χάζι να σε βλέπω την ημέρα μια φορά
Για να παίρνει ο νους μου αέρα κι η καρδιά παρηγοριά
Απεφάσισα τα μαύρα να φορώ παντοτινά
και να κλαίω μέρα-νύχτα, τη δική σου απονιά
Απεφάσισα να γίνω στην Ελλάδα ταχτικός
στη φεργάδα καπετάνιος και στον πόνο μου γιατρός
