"Apopse as vrethume" (Greek script: "Απόψε ας βρεθούμε", English translation: "Let's Meet Tonight") was the Cypriot entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1989, performed in Greek by Fani Polymeri and Yiannis Savvidakis.

The song was performed seventeenth on the night (following Spain's Nina with "Nacida para amar" and preceding Switzerland's Furbaz with "Viver senza tei"). At the close of voting, it had received 51 points, placing 11th in a field of 22.

The song is a love duet, with the singers pledging to "meet tonight" and describing the world they intend to create for themselves as a result. An English version was written by Anastasiou with the title "Tonight Will Last Forever" was also recorded.

It was succeeded as Cypriot representative in the 1990 Contest by Anastazio Haris Anastasiou with "Milas Poli".
