Jednoj zeni

Ljuba Alicic · Other Songs - Ljuba Alicic

Drugima je znala biti lepa
a ja sam je voleo
mnogi su je ostavljali cesto
a ja sam je cekao

Drugima je poklanjala noci
a ja sam plakao
trazio je ulicama pustim
zbog nje sam ziveo

Ref. 2x
Jednoj zeni koju vise nemam
peva srce moje
uspomene jos me za nju vezu
zvao sam je sunce moje

Trazila je samo malo srece
i ja sam hteo to
plakala je usamljena nocu
a ja sam je ljubio

Zivela je zivot prepun suza
ja nisam hteo to
drugima je bila sve na svetu
a ja sam je gubio

Ref. 2x
