Ne daju mi da te volim

Ivan Kukolj · Other Songs - Ivan Kukolj

Nocas placem kao kisa
kao malo dete
sta sam kome ucinio
da se meni svete

Ref. 2x
Ne daju mi da te volim
da ti stope ljubim
a sta ce mi ovaj zivot
ako te izgubim

Nocas trazim samo tebe
pricam sam sa sobom
sta sam kome ucinio
da ne budem s tobom

Ref. 2x

Nocas kunem sve dusmane
bolom svoje duse
sta sam kome ucinio
da mi snove ruse

Ref. 2x
