Tek iz navike

Doris Dragovic · Other Songs - Doris Dragovic

Od kada nisi tu oko moje
moji dani se ne broje
zivim samo tek iz navike

Gorku vodu sama pijem
tugujem i suze krijem
krijem lik pred ovim ljudima

Od kada nisi tu zeljo moja
mene nema, niti pola

Ref.
Od kada nisi tu u mom' je srcu led
dignem glavu i smijem se
tek iz navike, tek iz navike

Od kada nisi tu u mom' je oku mrak
dignem glavu i smijem se
tek iz navike, tek iz navike
