Srescemo se nekad u zivotu

i ne mislis kako mi je sada
a ja se nikada tome nisam nad'o
da mi kazes zbogom tako iznenada
Ref. 2x
Srescemo se nekad u zivotu
da te pitam kako ti je sada
da l' je ljubav uzvracena tebi
da l' si nekom bila ono sto i meni
Svako ima pravo na ljubav i srecu
a ti si se poigrala mojom
neka te ne stignu kletve srca moga
al' placaces, draga, grehe srca svoga
Ref. 2x
Otisla si sada iz zivota moga
i ne mislis kako mi je sada
sta te briga sto ja sad zbog tebe patim
i ne mogu istom merom da ti vratim
Ref. 2x
