Vratite mi ljubav moju
Lepa Lukic · Other Songs - Lepa Lukic
Nekada sam s dragim
sanjala o sreci
verovala u taj divan san
na rastanak ni mislila nisam
ali eto, dodje i taj dan
Ref.
Necu, necu da verujem nikom
medju nama da je kraj
vratite mi ljubav moju
a uzmite suncev sjaj
Secam se jos uvek nasih dugih setnji
kada smo od zvezda krali sjaj
a sad ni one ne veruju meni
da je nasoj sreci dos'o kraj
Ref.
Volela sam zivot i sve sto mi pruza
radov'o me svake ptice let
sada placem kraj uvelih ruza
suzom hocu da orosim cvet
