Malena

Parni Valjak · Other Songs - Parni Valjak

Zasto pitas kako si
znas da cu ti lagati
covjek tesko priznaje svoje poraze

Ne, nisi dobro vidjela
to nisu suze u ocima
samo vjetar, samo vjetar

Ref.
Malena, znam
da nisi tako naivna
malena, znam da pamtis
sto si mi ucinila
valjda ne ocekujes
da ti priznam sve
koliko boli kad te vidim
koliko mi nedostajes
idi s mirom, svojim putem
pusti me

Nije da mi cvatu ruze
ne mogu rec' da uzivam
ipak trajem, guram sam
