Default Άνω-κάτω -Γιώργος Μαζωνάκης

I have to admit that the title of the song is very suggestive as to how I feel now! Up when I find a word, down when I realise it's useles and I can't translate the whole song!!!

Άνω-κάτω

Δίπλα σου δυο βήματα προχώρησα I take two steps towards you
κι από την αρχή σού παραχώρησα- And from the start I granted to you
πάνω στην καρδιά μου εξουσία.- rules upon my heart
Ξέχασα παλιότερα βιώματα, I forget older....
σου ’δωσα μεγάλα δικαιώματα
και ανυπολόγιστη αξία
και ανυπολόγιστη αξία.

Άνω-κάτω τη ζωή μου
όταν θες εσύ την κάνεις.
Εύκολο για σένα είναι
άμα θες να με τρελάνεις.

Άνω-κάτω το μυαλό μου,
μια το βρίσκω, μια το χάνω.
Ξέχασα και τ’ όνομά μου
σ’ ένα σου φιλί απάνω.

Δίπλα σου δυο βήματα προχώρησα
και τον εαυτό μου ξαναγνώρισα,
από την αρχή όλα τα πήρα.
Γύρισαν ανάποδα τα πράγματα
κι όλα τα παλιά μου συμπεράσματα,
άλλαξα για σένα χαρακτήρα
άλλαξα για σένα χαρακτήρα.
