Oce moj

Sinan Sakic · Other Songs - Sinan Sakic

Rano sam otis'o od kuce
dok si ti trazio sebe
ja torbu pa u bespuce
bio sam ljut na tebe

Rano sam otis'o od kuce
znam da me nosis na savesti
sad tvoja suza kanuce
tek sada vidis kako sam isti
isti k'o ti

Ref.
Oce moj, oce moj
nismo se culi, ni pisali
a jedan drugog pred ljudima
uvek do neba smo dizali

Oce moj, oce moj
nikad se nismo razumeli
a jedan drugog smo voleli
onako kako smo umeli

Rano sam otis'o od kuce
ulica bila mi nada
pod vedrim nebom svanuce
dom mi je bio tada
