Αγκαλιασμένοι με σπασμένα τα φτερά
Απ' τα ψηλά στα χαμηλά
Θα πάρει χρόνο μα θα κλείσουν οι πληγές
Θα βγούμε πάλι νικητές

Μελαγχολική μου αγάπη πέσαμε έξω δυστυχώς
Μην το βάζεις όμως κάτω και για μας έχει ο Θεός
Μελαγχολική μου αγάπη μου ραγίζεις την καρδιά

Μες στα μάτια σου όταν βλέπω συννεφιά

Μια μπόρα είναι κάνε λίγο υπομονή
Θα την περάσουμε μαζί
Κι όταν ο ήλιος ξημερώσει το πρωί
Θα 'χεις ξεχάσει τη βροχή

Μελαγχολική μου αγάπη πέσαμε έξω δυστυχώς
Μην το βάζεις όμως κάτω και για μας έχει ο Θεός
Μελαγχολική μου αγάπη μου ραγίζεις την καρδιά
Μες στα μάτια σου όταν βλέπω συννεφιά

Μελαγχολική μου αγάπη πέσαμε έξω δυστυχώς
Μην το βάζεις όμως κάτω και για μας έχει ο Θεός

Μελαγχολική μου αγάπη μου ραγίζεις την καρδιά
Μες στα μάτια σου όταν βλέπω συννεφιά
