Imam jednu zelju
Mira Vasiljevic · Other Songs - Mira Vasiljevic
da ti tvoja medna usta
jos jednom poljubim
pa da se nikada
iz sna ne probudim
Nista me ne boli
samo mi se srcu
rana pozledjuje
stara jer me ti ne volis
srce iz nedara
Kada budem umro
na mom srcu
ostace mi jedna zelja
pusta sto ti ja nikada
ne poljubih usta
Imam jednu zelju
