Hteo bi da me diras, pogledom me skidas
stara ljubavi
na stranu osecanja i tvoja obecanja
mene zaboravi

Ref. 2x
Niko, Niko, Nikola, ja bih s tobom igrala
al' ne ko sto sviras ti
Niko, Niko, Nikola, neces vise nikada
kraj mene zaspati

Ti svojim putem kreni, nekoj drugoj zeni
mene ostavi
da sama bitku bijem i svoju tugu krijem
sa mnom se pozdravi
