Ja sam tebe izabrala
Mara i Lole · Other Songs - Mara i Lole
sta je zivot, ja sam osijetio
kad me svako napustio mila
ti si uvijek pored mene bila
Ja sam tebe izabrala
svoje srce dala
i u dobru i u zlu
kraj tebe cu biti tu
bilo dobro ili ne
ti racunaj na mene
Vrijeme ide, prolaze godine
sad te volim vise nego prije
ni u kog se uzdati ne mogu
samo tebi i dragome Bogu
Ja cu s tobom uvijek biti
pored tebe ostariti
i u dobru i u zlu
kraj tebe cu biti tu
bilo dobro ili ne
ti racunaj na mene
Nismo zeno vise sirotinja
al' nam u svijet ode familija
moje srce jos za djecom vene
samo ti si ostala kraj mene
Neka ide svako sebi
ja od tebe nikad ne bi
i u dobru i u zlu
kraj tebe cu biti tu
bilo dobro ili ne
ti racunaj na mene
Ja sam tebe izabrala
