Ako me ikada sretnes
Dino Merlin · Other Songs - Dino Merlin
u ovom ukletom gradu
ostani mirno
na istoj strani plocnika
Ne stavljaj ruke na lice
nemas sto od mene kriti
glavu gore
nama je ljubav lozinka
Ne pitaj je li pravedno
sto nas je prekrio mrak
ni to sto nismo zajedno
pusti suzu, daj mi znak
Ref.
Da jos nije prestalo
da nikad nece prestati
mogu proci stoljeca
mogu ti i umrijeti
A ti me nisi prestala
i nikad neces prestati
ljeta zime proljeca
za tebe cu zivjeti i pjevati
Ljubav je slijepa i luda
ne zna za Boga ni suda
al' lijepo pjeva
i lijepo dusu odjeva
Ako me ikada sretnes
ne stavljaj ruke na lice
stavi smijeh
i stare razglednice
Ne pitaj je li pravedno
sto nas je prekrio mrak
ni to sto nismo zajedno
pusti suzu, daj mi znak
Ref.
