Perla
Bajaga · Other Songs - Bajaga
ni voda
sve da sam
bolji nego sad
Da nije vreme
k'o sto jeste
i da je drugo svetlo
drugi grad
Dugo i polako
kao beskonacan broj
vucem se po gradu
sporo, od kad nisam tvoj
Ref.
Da se pojavis
k'o perla iz mora
da me udari
hiljadu Bosfora
da se meni desi to
ne bih poverovao
Da se pojavis
k'o iskra u noci
pomislio bih
da me lazu oci
da se meni desi to
ne bih poverovao
K'o perla iz mora
