Godine, godine
Zeljko Samardzic · Other Songs - Zeljko Samardzic
i zivot i vreme sve da prevarim
bezao od dobrih starih drugova
stideo se svojih odraslih sinova
Drugovao sve na par, deca odose
za mene niko vise ne pita
i ja postadoh star sasvim normalna stvar
a u njenom sam srcu i dalje podstanar

Godine, godine zasto sam vas krio
uzalud zivot moj, uzalud je sve
bolje da sam vas za noc sve izgubio
nego sto ste ostale zauvek kod nje
Godine, godine zasto sam vas krio
neka mi oprosti ako ima 'ko
bolje da sam vas za noc sve izgubio
godine, godine, da vas imam sto
Da zadrzim mladost cinio sam sve
uzalud je bilo ipak prosla je
da joj budem lepsi, da joj budem mlad
leteo sam kratko, padam jos i sad
Drugovao sve na par, deca odose
za mene niko vise ne pita
i ja postadoh star, sasvim normalna stvar
a u njenom sam srcu i dalje podstanar
