Sesir

Saban Saulic · Other Songs - Saban Saulic

Nikada me nisi prosla
izgovor sam samo trazio
i za laznog srecnika
u zivotu vazio

Ref.
Eh, da mogu da te zaboravim
k'o pijanac sesir u kafani
eh, da mogu da te ostavim
kao vetar list na grani

Eh, da mogu da te opsujem
onako muski, pogano
mozda bi i meni
mozda bi i meni svanulo

Nikada me nisi prosla
u srcu si mome trajala
i sve dane buduce
kao lopov pokrala

Ref.
