Bir Zamanlar Deli Gönlüm
Sezen Aksu · Firuze [1982]
Bir zamanlar neredeydi ÅŸimdi nerde
İster güneÅŸ ol yak beni yaÄŸmurum ol at beni
Aklım baÅŸka duygularım baÅŸka yerde
Bir deli rüzgar savurdu beni böyle
Umutluk tutsak benim altın kafeste
İster güneÅŸ ol yak beni yaÄŸmurum ol at beni
Zincirledi yüreÄŸimi artık sende
Yok aÄŸlatmaz asla beni bir gün ayrılık
PiÅŸmanlıÄŸım nefret olmaz öfke olmaz
Senden daha güçlü bir hasret bulunmaz
İster güneÅŸ ol yak beni yaÄŸmurum ol at beni
Acılarla sevinçlerle yaÅŸat beni
