Što to bješe ljubav

Gdje li si se dosad skrivala

Znam, negdje si uživala

Kad god došla, dobro došla mi

jer jedno za drugo mi smo stvoreni

Ja odavno nikog ne ljubim

i spreman sam sve da izgubim

Kad god došla, dobro došla mi

jer jedno za drugo mi smo stvoreni

Podsjeti me što to bješe ljubav

i bar na tren biti zaljubljen

Što to bješe, što to bješe ljubav

i bar na tren biti zaljubljen

Åšto to bješe ljubav
