Zivimo pod istim nebom
Ljuba Alicic · Other Songs - Ljuba Alicic
upoznah vetar i miris cveca
sve ono sto je lepo
kada se srce te zene seca
Ref. 2x
A zivimo pod istim nebom
proslost nosimo u sebi
a kada bi me slucajno srela
mozda me poznala ne bi
Da l njene zelene oci
na stara pisma tuzno se smese
ili se ne seca vise
na jednu ljubav sto lepa bese
Ref. 2x
Polako prolazi mladost
secanje na nju ne da mi mira
ponekad necujno tiho
i suza kane kad neko svira
Ref. 2x
