kada san ga rukom iscupa
i kroz sve te rici ja san jubav trazia
al' je niko nije pripozna
Kroz pustu kalu nogon prid nogu
do njenih sam vrata dospia
bez imalo force da bar jednom pokucan
sta sam isprid ka od kamena
Ref.
A tija san je jubit
tija san je cvrsto stisnit uz sebe
i da stane vrime i da stane sve
da se svit ne okrice
A tija san je jubit
sa njom sanjat i budit se
i da stane vrime i da stane sve
da se svit ne okrice
Kroz pustu kalu nogon prid nogu
do njenih sam vrata dospia
bez imalo force da bar jednom pokucan
sta sam isprid ka od kamena
Ref.
I da stane vrime i da stane sve
da se svit ne okrice
