Plakati zbog toga necu

cija li sam ljubav bila
zasto da se vracamo na dane
tamo gde je nekad suza lila
Ref.
Plakati zbog toga necu
cemu, kad se jednom zivi
ne dirajmo stare rane
zbog rastanka sebe krivim
Zivim svoju drugu mladost
nije vise srce kamen
u pepelu neke davne vatre
ponovo se pojavio plamen
Ref.
Sve je nekad bilo lazno
sve nestalo kao pena
onog dana kad sam tebe srela
proslost bese nekud odnesena
Ref.
