Zasto sam se rodila
Indira Radic · Other Songs - Indira Radic
nocne skitnice
sad niz lice suze liju
ko niz litice
Ref. 2x
Zasto sam se rodila
za sta zivim ja
kad mi ova sudbina
srecu uzima
Sakrile te od mog oka
magle srebrene
sad je dusa usamljena
dom za vetrove
Ref. 2x
Cuvaju te kao tajnu
lazne kraljice
sad je srce bez ljubavi
noc bez danice
Ref. 2x
