Sto puteva i sto staza

cak ni tebi koju sam voleo
jer kad htedoh da ti srce dam
drugom stazom zivot te odveo
Ref. 2x
Sto puteva i sto staza
ali nema putokaza
put ka sreci da pokaze
nesrecnima sto je traze
Na raskrscu zivota sam stao
sto puteva stojah oko mene
s jedne strane mene zivot zove
s druge strane drage uspomene
Ref. 2x
U nocima samoce i tuge
dok razmisljam o zivotu svome
pitas li se sta je sa mnom bilo
otkad nisam ja u srcu tvome
Ref. 2x
