Kralj meraka

Tiha voda lomi breg
rekla si mi davno
kad sam tebe voleo
u prolece rano

Dodje mi da srce
sada okacim o klin
jer bez tebe vise ne znam
sta cu dalje s njim

Ref.
Al' opet pevam
pravim se ja kao da nista nije
srce mi kuca sa pola snage
al' kazem dobro mi je

Al' opet pevam kao da si tu
da pobegnem od mraka
i kad mi nije do pesme stalo
ostajem kralj meraka

Gde to ima bagrema
koji nema grana
gde to ima coveka
koji nema rana

S tobom mi je zivot pravi
ovo nisam ja ko ce znati
sta me drzi jos na nogama

Ref.
