The 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 anymore So I come back to the hotel Where 50 years ago A woman waited for her lover But he didn't 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 didn't 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 gla** 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
