Demis Russos, Vangelis e Lukas Sideras formaram, em 1968, os Aphrodite’s Child. Eu sei que a música já tem uns anos e que depois o Demis Russos seguiu outras abordagens (e dedicou algum tempo a dietas milagrosas) mas letra e música continuam com uma força que não se pode negar. Aliás, várias são as músicas de Aprhodite’s Child que mantêm, ainda hoje, uma frescura invejável. Aqui fica uma interpretação ao vivo de End of the World e respectiva letra.

 

You should come with me to the end of the world
without telling your parents and your friends,

You know that you only need to say the word,
and we may live at the end of the world,
But I know,
that I’ll go away by myself,
I feel you don’t want to come,

You should come with me to the end of the world,
We could lay all day on the quiet sands,
I would introduce you to my friend the bird,
who sings and flies along the fairy trend,
But I know,
that I’ll go away by myself,
I feel you don’t want to come,
Heya…

If you come with me to the end of the world,
I’ll give you anything that lives on earth,

You know that you only need to say the word,
and we may live at the end of the world,
But I know,
that I’ll go away by myself,
I feel you don’t want to come,
Heya…
