[Intro]
Behind the safety of the city walls
Outside, the fields are burning in this war
Once upon a longtime ago
In Greece
[Verse]
Glory to the fallen by a man
Unperturbed like Zeus there he stands
Praising the Athenian way of life
As an ideal
[Chorus]
The Olympian, he had a vision
Now forever anchored in time
When the stakes were getting higher
He was still willing to pay the price
Still willing to pay the price
[Verse]
As patron of fеstivals and the fine arts
With drama lifting up the pеople's hearts
He created a greater sense of unity
Through the years
Architecture and territory sprawling
Not ruled by the few but by the many
As science and reason forged a lasting empire
Of the mind
[Chorus]
The Olympian, he had a vision
Now forever anchored in time
When the stakes were getting higher
He was still willing to pay the price
Still willing to pay the price
[Bridge]
Can you see it - can you see it?
On a stroll across the long wall
Can you hear it - can you hear it?
Like the sound of Sirens calling
[Outro]
Behind the safety of the city walls
Outside, the fields are burning in this war
Once upon a longtime ago
In Greece
