Ne daj se mladosti
Zdravko Colic · Other Songs - Zdravko Colic
vatru i led tvog ramena
snjegove u postelji
svileni plis tvog koljena
Mali stan u predgradju
student mlad i mlada radnicka kci
dva sanjara svoj su gradili svijet
ucili se voljeti
Ref.
Ne daj se mladosti tudjim rukama
pijanim usnama, losim ljudima
ne daj se vremenu da te prevari
svi neka ostare, samo nemoj ti
Ne daj se mladosti
