sta moze da bolje prija
sta cu jadna ako ode
sunce nece da mi sija
Ref. 2x
Sto odlazi, sto odlazi
kad ne zeli ici
sta ga tjera na taj korak
gdje to misli stici
Sta je teze od rastanka
sta od njega vise boli
zna li neko da mi kaze
sto odlazi kad me voli
Ref. 2x
Sta je ljepse od ljubavi
sta moze da jace sija
sta cu jadna ako ode
zivot nece da mi prija
Ref. 2x
