Ne ostavljaj me samu

drugoj mozes da je das
ostavi me sad na miru
nemoj da me diras
Ref.
Bilo je dana, dragi
kada sam te molila
ne, ne ostavljaj me samu
ne, ne ostavljaj me samu
sad, dragi, sve kasno je
Kad siva magla jesen svija
i kad lisce pozuti
ako nekad sretnes mene
ti prodji i cuti
Ref.
Ja htedoh srecu ovog sveta
zelja mi je prokleta
mesto srece stigla tuga
sudba mi se ruga
Ref.
