Cije grijehe sada placam

Kemal Malovcic · Other Songs - Kemal Malovcic

Tebi srce svoje
dao sam bez rijeci
a ti meni tugu
sto se ne lijeci

Ref.
Cije grijehe sada placam
ciji dug sudbini vracam
nekom pjesma meni suza
nekom radost meni tuga

Volio sam tebe
svojim bicem svim
a ti srcu bolom
ljubav uzvrati

Ref.

I da sada umrem
na tvojim rukama
ti me nebi znam
ni tad zalila

Ref.
