Perperi i zlato
Perper · Other Songs - Perper
ne bih bez tebe ni trena mogao
kao da mi zore na licu prave bore
kad se nisam pored tebe jutrom budio
Ref. 2x
Ne dam tami da te sakrije
jos u meni s'jas
ne dam nikom, znas da volim
samo tebe ja
Padaju kise, boli sve vise
lose mirise, ma na tebe lici sve
perperi i zlato kupili bi sve
ali nikad ovu ljubav za tebe
Ref. 2x
Sad te trebam, nikom te ne dam
sad te trebam, trebas mi
Kad mi zore, perperi i zlato
prave bore, kupili bi sve
kada nisam, ali nikad ovu
pored nje, ljubav za tebe
Ref. 2x
