Kad bi vratio se ti

bilo bi kao nekad sve
tek mozda jedna mala stvar
cesce bi rekla volim te
Mozda bih opet grijesila
al?Å’ iste greske te
bdijuc' uz tebe dan i noc
ponavljala bih volim te
O, kad bi vratio se ti
jos jednom da te zagrlim
ponavljala bi samo to
da tebe ljubim srcem svim
Da tebi pruzim vise jos
zrtvovala bih tada sve
bila bih sretna da si tu
da mogu saptat' vplim te
O, kad bi vratio se ti
i dani nase ljubavi
nadoknadili bismo tada
sto covjek ne zna dok je mlad
Da te dozivjet' mogu ja
ko nekad njeznog, kada znam sve
oci bi tvoje ljubila
ponavljajuci volim te
Bilo bi kao nekad sve
tek mozda jedna mala stvar
cesce bi rekla volim te
Kad bi vratio se ti
