Samo da si tu

Samo da si tu pa i da me prezires
i da nosis tudje prezime
manje bih patio kada bi te vidio
samo da si tu, da si tu

Ref.
Ispod moje postelje davno spava sjecanje
kad me u snu dotakne oko srca hladno je
sve je nista bez tebe ispod moga jastuka
tvoja slika ostala na celo da je privijem
kad mi ruke zadrhte oroza ne okinem
kad mi ruke zadrhte u sebe da ne okinem

Samo da si tu pa da mi nista ne kazes
da me ti ni prstom ne taknes
bilo bi dovoljno da se rodim ponovo
samo da si tu, da si tu
