Velicanstvena

Nino · Other Songs - Nino

Na proslavi nase male mature
lepse od tebe nije bilo cure
zaljubih se, al' nedugo potom
u potrazi za boljim zivotom

Iz naseg si odselila mesta
i moj san se istopi i nesta
i tek nakon petnaest godina
puteve nam ukrsti sudbina

Ref.
Jos lepotu posedujes poput gorske vile
godine ti nista nisu, nista, promenile
i jos sijas istim sjajem ko sto si i sjala
velicanstvena si bila i ostala

Nas susret nakon tolike pauze
i tebi i meni izmamio suze
krenula je tad prica o nama
sve od tada do danasnjeg dana

Mnogo novog donelo je vreme
drugi s tobom, druga pored mene
zar da nakon petnaest godina
puteve nam ukrsti sudbina

Ref.
