Mala

Igor Popovic · Other Songs - Igor Popovic

Ti uvek imas predobar izgovor
kad vidim kako gresis
sa malo lazi ti lako kupis me
dosta je da mi se nasmesis

A ja ti bezim, ali sve sam blize
u tvojoj mrezi zarobljen
zbog tebe svakog dana sve sam nize
u ovu tugu potopljen

Ref.
Mala, mala bila mi je pamet
kad sam te kraj srca pustio
mala, mala, dobro si me znala
ja tebe ni malo

Mala, mala bila mi je pamet
kad sam te kraj srca pustio
jer i ono malo sto si dala
ja sam izgubio

Ti mi se vratis kad vise nemas gde
ja uvek otvorim ti vrata
i znam da gresim, al' opet primim te
samom sebi iz inata

Uzalud bezim, ali sve sam blize
u tvojoj mrezi zarobljen
zbog tebe svakog dana sve sam nize
u ovu tugu potopljen

Ref.
