A sad adios
Jasna Zlokic · Other Songs - Jasna Zlokic
Evo, na kraju svijeta
mene obuze sjeta
na te mislim sto put na dan
Ja sam korak od mraka
zima kuca na vrata
na te mislim gdje si li sad
Pamtim ljeto i glad
jedno drugom smo tad
mi poljupce dali
Njezno saptao glas
smokve ljuljale nas
a mi smo ih krali
Ref.
A sad adios, vaya con dios
jer ljeto prodje, brzo prodje sad
reci cu bio, bio si mi drag
A sad adios, vaya con dios
jer je on u srcu mom
u srcu mom, u srcu mom
Ref. 2x
