Dva put san umra

Kad je nebo meni dalo te
reklo mi je idi, bit' ces njen
u srcu sam te nosija, otkad sam se rodija
al' san kasno svatija da nisan ja za te

Tog san dana tebi dosa ja
osim sebe nisan nista ima
a i cime bi te prosija da bih tebe dobija
srce nije dovoljno i nisan ja za te

Ref.
Zivote moj, dva put san umra
umra za njon, prvi put
kad san je vidija ja drugi put kad je otisla
zivote moj, dva put san umra
umra za njon

Kad te danas vidim da si s njim
ja od tuge za tren ostarim
i nebo je pogrisilo, karte je promisalo
od mene te odvelo, uzelo draga

Ref.
