sto zivim, a nisam ziv
znam ko me je tugom castio
zato moram kako znam
da te iz srca oteram
da ja ne bi vise patio
Ref.
Zvacu stare drugove
da pijemo do zore
da te tako zaboravu dam
al' je moja nevolja
sto si bila najbolja
pa te lako ne zaboravljam
Znam ja dobro da sam mlad
i zbog koga patim sad
zato hocu da se radujem
moram da te prebolim
da te vise ne volim
jer sa tugom danas prestajem
Ref.
