Dusa za nju
Oliver Dragojevic · Other Songs - Oliver Dragojevic
svoju dusu za nju
i ne dam nikom da dodje blizu
jer je za nju
Nije da ne bi prezivio sam
to sam barem do sad naucio
al' ne bi nikad, o Boze, nikad
od nje odustao
Ref.
Dal' je to san
sto sanjaju sretni ljudi
il' doci ce dan, plavo jutro
da me probudi
Na kraju puta, miran i svoj
idem do kraja
idem sa njom
jesam li mogao
ista vise pozeljeti
Kaput od lisca
a na njoj samo proljece
i dok se smije
sve vise se gubim
Unazad vraca me
ne nalazim rijeci
za sve sto hocu
da zapamti
al' lice joj prica sve
sto sam htio
da sa mnom osjeti
Ref.
Na kraju puta
miran i svoj
idem do kraja
idem sa njom
jesam li mogao
ista vise pozeljeti
