Tamo daleko
Van Gogh · Other Songs - Van Gogh
tamo gde nikad nisi nicija
sidro koje veze coveka
znam kad si blizu kako pocinje
Osmehom bola daleko do zvezda
u tesnoj skoljci od krvi i mesa
svi su, svi su nestali
od tebe takve svi su pobegli
Ref.
Tamo daleko u secanja, tamo daleko u secanja
tamo daleko u secanja, svi su pobegli
tamo daleko u secanja, tamo daleko u secanja
tamo daleko u secanja, svi su nestali
Tako duboko ispod sna
skrivena lica od pogleda
slikas po telima vesnike oluje
znam kad si blizu kako pocinje
Stegni me sad, bolece znam
stegni me sad i vodi me
osmehom bola, daleko do zvezda
u tesnu skoljku od krvi i mesa
Ref.
Tamo daleko u secanja, tamo daleko u secanja
tamo daleko u secanja, svi su nestali
