Moj zivote drug mi nisi bio
Saban Saulic · Other Songs - Saban Saulic
od rodjenja sa mnom otkako se druzim
nisam ljut na njega al' nesto me boli
srce mi je prazno a hoce da voli
Ref.
Onda kad je trebalo da biram
sa kojom cu zivot da prozivim
pogresnoj sam ruku dao
bol za dusu izabrao
Moj zivote drug mi nisi bio
ledja si mi okrenuo tada
izdao si svog najboljeg druga
to ti necu oprostit' nikada
Nisi smeo dozvoliti mojom dusom da zavlada
nemoj sa njom druze sto ne rece tada
putujem sa tobom al' put nije pravi
zvezda sto nas vodi nece da se javi
Ref.
Znam da cemo stici tamo gde mladost i starost prica
znaj ljubav je druze kao leptirica
nije miris isti u svakome cvetu
sto ne rece meni onda k'o detetu
Ref.
