Nits Long Forgotten Story Lyrics

It's the year 2040, I survived the holy war
Through the big world I am walking since the downfall of the car
I am almost 87, I am almost in my grave
And I don't believe in heaven any more

So I come back to the hotel where 50 years ago
a woman waited for her lover but he did not show up
'This is not a church', she said
'But I feel like praying in this hall
It's the first time in my life
He did not call'

It's a long forgotten story
It's a long forgotten day
When we sailed the 'Hope and Glory'
till the town was far away
It's a long forgotten story
It's a long forgotten day

From the room the view is still the same, the Lykabettos hill
Where we played in 1989 when the time was standing still
I was almost 38 when I bought a dark red vase
Do I hear somebody knocking on the glass

CHORUS
