Hocu ljubav, necu prijateljstvo
Ljuba Alicic · Other Songs - Ljuba Alicic
jednu zenu koju tajno volim
sve bih dao sto u srcu imam
da je nocas pred ocima mojim
Ref. 2x
Hocu ljubav, necu prijateljstvo
nekom drugom ti prijatelj budi
zar su vazne godine za ljubav
ako neko iskreno te ljubi
Znam da i ti usamljeno zivis
da te boli ljubav izgubljena
zasto krijes kad znam da me volis
priznaj draga da si zaljubljena
Ref. 2x
Nemoj samo nikad da mi kazes
kasno smo se u zivotu sreli
i da ljubav srecnima pripada
a mi da smo samo prijatelji
Ref. 2x
