Di tengah rasa rindu ku yang menggebu
Kau bersama dia
...
Disaat saat saat ku menunggu dirimu
Kau bersama dia
...
Bila kau cinta aku
Mengapa kau tipu diriku
Tuk bersama dia
Kau bunuh hatiku
Saat ku bernafas untukmu
Kau kebanggaan aku
Yang tega menipuku
...
Bila kau cinta aku
Mengapa kau tipu diriku
Tuk bersama dia
Kau bunuh hatiku
Saat ku bernafas untukmu
Kau kebanggaan aku
Yang tega menipuku
Yang tega menipuku...
