Hvala sto nisi
Indira Radic · Other Songs - Indira Radic
i srce mi dotaknuo da me zadrzis
pa makar bilo mi gore
i sve se rane otvore
hvala ti, hvala, za sve
sto nisi voleo me
Hvala sto nisi nikad mi decu pravio
bolesnoj vode doneo
hvala sto nisi sa mnom u nevolji bio
u meni zenu ubio
jer s njim sam probala sve
jesam i lepo mi je
Ref. 2x
Ti si mi ga nasao
i u srce stavio
nije ti on izbor moj
on je meni poklon tvoj
za moje suze krv i znoj
Hvala sto nisi nezne mi poruke slao
i bar na kratko nazvao
hvala sto nisi sa mnom u nevolji bio
u meni zenu ubio
jer s njim sam probala sve
jesam i lepo mi je
Ref. 3x
