Ja nisam nesto slatko

Seka Aleksic · Other Songs - Seka Aleksic

Tek onako u prolazu si
bacio oko na mene
za tebe su zene kao gradovi
u kojima provedes neko vreme

Sto pozelis to dobijes
od mene dobices samo
poljubac vreli za utehu
ko da se hiljadu godina znamo

Ref.
Ja nisam nesto slatko sto ce se istopiti
u tvojim rukama za pet minuta
zar mislis da ti verujem kad kazes da si moj
i da cu biti tvoja nova ljubav

Ja nisam nesto slatko sto ce se istopiti
u tvojim rukama za pet minuta
a ti bi sve za jednu noc ne trazi previse
ja ne zivim samo za trenutak

Zar i plamen smo prepun tajni
proletelo bi par sati
al' kopka te to ako me ne probas
koliko dobra sam neces ni znati

Sto pozelis to dobijes
od mene dobices samo
poljubac vreli za utehu
ko da se hiljadu godina znamo
