Casa zuci, casa meda
Mile Kitic · Other Songs - Mile Kitic
ko sto druga nikad nije
sad je negde na kraj sveta
neka nova ljubav grije
Ref. 2x
Casa zuci, casa meda
to je zivot moj
dane serce, dane tuge
sve dugujem njoj
Gorjela je kao vatra
nija nisam bio stjena
sad se negde na kraj sveta
kraj drugoga budi snena
Ref. 2x
Mislo sam svet se rusi
od te vatre od tog plama
sada negde drugog ljubi
ili ko ja zivi sama
Ref. 2x
