ne volim kad pada lisce zlatno
ne volim kise
a ne volis ni ti verovatno
Ref. 2x
Jesen je plakala s' tobom
jesen sedamdeset i neke
tada smo poslednji put
setali kraj reke
Od onog dana o tebi
bas nista ja ne cujem
jos ne znam gde si
iako se cesto raspitujem
Ref. 2x
A zivot tece
pomera se starog sata klatno
jesen se vrati
a ti, mila, ode nepovratno
Ref. 2x
