Geçmişteki günlerden
Bir teselli ararsın
Bak o zaman resmime
Benden sana son kalan
Bir küçük resim şimdi
Cevap veremez ama
Ve işte arda kalan
Bir küçük anı şimdi
Koyup da bir başına
Bırakıp gittin beni
Birgün belki hayattan
Geçmişteki günlerden
Bir teselli ararsın
Bak o zaman resmime
Sen yalnız değilsin
Biliyorum neredesin
Bu üzerdi beni
Yaşasaydın ve görseydin
Sen yalnız değilsin
Biliyorum neredesin
Bu üzerdi beni
Yaşasaydın ve görseydin
Birgün belki hayattan
Geçmişteki günlerden
Bir teselli arasın
Bak o zaman resmime
Benden sana son kalan
Bir küçük resim şimdi
Cevap veremez ama
Ağlar yalnızlığına
Ve işte arda kalan
Bir küçük anı şimdi
Koyup da bir başına
Bırakıp gittin beni
