I was wondering if someone could translate these lyrics for me... Please, it's very important! Even just the chorus, because I undertsood the rest but I can't understand the chorus! Much appreciated

Σαν ταινία παλιά

Ξημερώνει κι έχω ξυπνήσει
σπ' το μεθύσι το χθεσινό
μεσημέρι και υποφέρει
η καρδιά μου πώς να στο πω
κάθε βράδυ δεν αντέχω
που δεν σ' έχω, δεν ελέγχω
την ψυχή μου, το μυαλό μου
και με πιάνει ο πανικός μου

Σαν ταινία παλιά
που τέλος δεν έχει
η αγάπη σε ρόλο
που κανείς δεν αντέχει
παίζει πλέον για μας
σε θέατρο άδειο
με φινάλε εμάς
μα θέλει κουράγιο

Η ματιά σου μοιάζει ταξίδι
ένα ταξίδι ερωτικό
ένα αστέρι σαν καλοκαίρι
το φιλί σου το πιο γλυκό
κάθε βράδυ δεν αντέχω
που δεν σ'έχω, δεν ελέγχω
την ψυχή μου, το μυαλό μου
και με πιάνει ο πανικός μου

Σαν ταινία παλιά
που τέλος δεν έχει
η αγάπη σε ρόλο
που κανείς δεν αντέχει
παίζει πλέον για μας
σε θέατρο άδειο
με φινάλε εμάς
μα θέλει κουράγιο

LIKE AN OLD MOVIE

Ξημερώνει κι έχω ξυπνήσει
THE DAY IS BREAKING AND I HAVE AWAKEN
σπ' το μεθύσι το χθεσινό
FROM YESTERDAY'S DRUNKENNESS
μεσημέρι και υποφέρει
NOON AND (IT) IS SUFFERING
η καρδιά μου πώς να στο πω
(IT=) MY HEART, HOW MAY I SAY THIS TO YOU
κάθε βράδυ δεν αντέχω
EVERY NIGHT, I CANNOT BEAR IT
που δεν σ' έχω, δεν ελέγχω
(IT=) THAT I DON'T HAVE YOU, DON'T CONTROL
την ψυχή μου, το μυαλό μου
MY SOUL, MY MIND
και με πιάνει ο πανικός μου
AND "MY PANIC" GETS HOLD OF ME

Σαν ταινία παλιά
LIKE AN OLD MOVIE
που τέλος δεν έχει
THAT HAS NO "END"
η αγάπη σε ρόλο
LOVE IN (A) ROLE
που κανείς δεν αντέχει
THAT NOONE IS (ABLE) TO BEAR
παίζει πλέον για μας
"PLAYS" "THESE DAYS", FOR US
σε θέατρο άδειο
IN AN EMPTY THEATRE
με φινάλε εμάς
WITH US AS "THE FINALE"
μα θέλει κουράγιο
BUT IT TAKES COURAGE

Η ματιά σου μοιάζει ταξίδι
YOUR LOOK RESEMBLES (A) VOYAGE
ένα ταξίδι ερωτικό
A PASSIONATE (EROTIC) VOYAGE
ένα αστέρι σαν καλοκαίρι
A STAR (JUST) LIKE SUMMER
το φιλί σου το πιο γλυκό
YOUR KISS, THE SWEETEST
κάθε βράδυ δεν αντέχω
EVERY NIGHT, I CANNOT BEAR IT
που δεν σ'έχω, δεν ελέγχω
THAT I DON'T HAVE YOU, DON'T CONTROL
την ψυχή μου, το μυαλό μου
MY SOUL, MY MIND
και με πιάνει ο πανικός μου
AND "MY PANIC" GETS HOLD OF ME

Thank you very much! I have two questions: The first is, what do you think he means when he says "in a role that no one can bear"? I like this sentence very much, because it means that maybe these two people see love differently from the others, that's how I interpret it.
The second question is, what does "with us as a finale" mean? Does it mean that love is "playing" in the air but it takes courage to actually get together and therefore have "us" (that is a relationship) as a finale? I don't understand and I've been thinking about it for 6 weeks! plz help me

Thank you "emakaloulagani" mou !!! ...

Right then, ... let's see ... !!! ...

Regarding your "first annotation" ...

... I feel that it means that, ... "Love" ... is of such "potency" ... such a great "role" to "act" upon ... that not even the greatest "artist" would be able to "bear" the "part" ... ... ... ... ...

Would "that" make any sense ?!? ... ( LOL ... I have been told, many atimes, that I don't make any ... "sense", I mean !!!) ... ... ...


The "plays for us" ... is just the "verb" to denote "the movie being played" ... ... ... nonetheless, it has that "double" meaning, really, doesn't it !!! ... !!!


As for your "second inquest" ...

THE FINALE ... "The Climax" ... "The Ending" ... of a "play", "movie" etc ... ... ...

Again, I feel ... it is a ... "yearning" ... of sorts !!! ... to have "US" as the ... "culmination" ... of "this", ... "OUR" relationship's story ... ... ...

BUT, ... it does take "courage" ... !!! ... !!! ... !!! ...

Thanks!
I can see your first point, the one about the strength of love, and I like it!
The second point is quite clear too, but I don't understand if in the third point you agree with me or not. I would like to know if this chorus is a sort of invitation, of declaration by the singer to the girl OR if they are already together and it's like a 'celebration' of their love. This last option wouldn't make much sense to me as in the rest of the song he suffers because she's away!

Glad you "see" the ... "concepts" herewith ... !!! ...


As for your "third point" ...

I am of the idea ... AS basically it IS "the purpose of existance" of Love Songs ... that, ...

The "lyrics" are to make "evident", ... to "validate", ... to "support" ... ... ...

... the "LONGING" and the "YEARNING" ... "Love" ... "deposits" IN ... "US" ...


What I am trying to say is, ... I believe that the "Chorus" is "singing" about the "Desire", the "Craving" ... of "being with the one you love" ... !!! ... !!! ...

ok! so basically what you're saying is, that they are NOT together and he yearns, as u say, to be with her!
Thanks very much for your help! You actually confirmed my suppositions. I love this song! I especially like phrases like " in an empty theatre" and the one I mentioned before. Teleia.
