Kao reku alasi

pamte setnje duge
kad smo zagrljeni, srecni
bili daleko od tuge
(2x)
Ref.
Kao reku alasi, moju dusu znala si
a ipak si otisla sa njim
od mog' srca krala si, drugom srecu dala si
a hteo sam da ti oprostim
Nezne reci, pesme u noci
bude stare snove
kad smo zaljubljeni bili
i sami cekali zore
(2x)
Ref.
Srce drhti ne zna da gubi
jos se s tobom budi
kad smo zaneseni bili
iste smo snove snili
(2x)
Ref.
