Pogledaj me sad, vise niceg nema
ostao sam sam, samo bleda senka
nemam nikoga da mi pruzi ruke
da kraj mene sanja
da kraj mene nebo dotakne

Kako da lazem sebe
da bila si mi samo jedna stanica
tako mala, nevazna
kako da varam sebe
da nase noci nisu bile vatrene
nisu bile iskrene

Sad kad te nema
kad drugom usne ljubis nezno
ja sam izgubljen za sve
podigni svoje oci, neka ti one kazu
sta sad osecam, da l' sam sada presrecan

Ref.

Kako da lazem sebe
da nase dane mogu da zaboravim
iza sebe ostavim
znam da je sada kasno
da vise nema nade da te poljubim
nocu kad se probudim

Ref. 3x
