O, Boze cuvaj je

koliko sam tvoj
mozda i bolje
mozda bi otisla da znas
A dve tvoje male suze
potopile bi sav moj svet
dugo te vara
ta moja losa gluma muskarcine
Ref.
A znam iz kakvog blata
digla si me ti
do zvezda sam leteo
na krilima tvoje ljubavi
I, znam da bez tebe
vise ne mogu ni tren
o, Boze cuvaj je
ona mi je sve
Jos se bojim kad otvorim oci
da ne budes tu
kad jednom shvatis
da tebe nisam vredan ja
Zavolela ti si u meni
to sto ne volim ni ja
decaka ulice
bez igde ikoga
