One bi htjele
Daleka Obala · Other Songs - Daleka Obala
nad oblacima nebom plove
zamisljene, zaljubljene
gledaju u noc
I vjeruju u neke lijepe
davne izgubljene snove
vjeruju da prava ljubav
jednom mora doc
I htjele bi da znaju kako
htjele bi da znaju kamo
odnose ih vjetrovi dok
lebde iznad nas
One bi htjele da im pridjes da
im kazes nekoliko toplih rijeci
One bi htjele da ih ljubis
njihovu tugu samo ljubav ljeci, ljeci
Primaknite se malo blize k njima
one su tuzne
poklonite im nasmijani svijet
primaknite se malo blize k njima
one su tuzne, a sanjaju smijeh
One bi htjele
