Daleko je

Tiho Orlic · Other Songs - Tiho Orlic

Pricaju mi da razbijas tugu,
ne vjerujes da ja nemam drugu,
jer ja bez tebe ne znam,
ja bez tebe necu

Volim tebe djevojcice mala,
volim zato sto si iz Mostara,
bez ljepote tvoje,
dani mi ne postoje

Ref.
Daleko je srce od tebe
daleko je, a tebe nema kraj mene

Kad se vratim, poljubicu cestu,
a ti budi na starome mjestu,
bez ljepote tvoje,
dani mi ne postoje

Ref.
