Kad mi dodjes ti
Oliver Dragojevic · Other Songs - Oliver Dragojevic
nema te tu kraj mene
a trebam te
kao pjesnik svoju bol
Na srcu mi studen zime
na usnama tvoje ime
i samo cekam dan
da dodjes mi
Ref.
A kad mi dodjes ti
i osmijeh vratis mi
sva patnja i bol
zivota mog ce proc'
U nocima bez sna
ja tebe dozivam
da dodjes mi ti
i kao svi pocnemo mi
mirno zivjeti
Moj dan nema kraja
a nocu tebe sanjam
i samo cekam dan
da dodjes mi
Ref.
