Nikad necu da te zaboravim
novu ljubav ne zelim da nadjem
noci su mi crne kao tuga
tebe nemam a nemam i druga
La, la, la, la, la, la
(4x)
Niko nema oci kao njene
crne kose raspletene duge
majko moja koliko je volim
srce ce mi prepuci od tuge
La, la, la, la, la, la
(8)
Nisam znao sta je ljubav prava
dok te nisam izgubio mladu
zato neka pati srce moje
neka pati bez ljubavi tvoje
La, la, la, la, la, la
(4x)
Nikad necu da te zaboravim
nikad necu znati sta je sreca
tuzno ce mi proci moja mladost
bez radosti, bez tebe, bez cveca
La, la, la, la, la, la
