Daleko nisam stigao da se smirim ja
vjerno si me, kao sjenka, pratila
stalno se okrecem da te ugledam
silom si mi ti u glavi, sad to dobro znam

Ref. 2x
Da te zaboravim
vjeruj mi, necu vise
ko si mi bila i sta mi znacis
u srcu pise

Polako, nisam stigao da te izbjegnem
probao sam i da nekud pobjegnem
ti si me sprijecila da to ucinim
uzalud mi pokusaj, gotovo je s tim

Ref. 4x
