Kakva je to ljubav

Kakva je to ljubav
kad toliko boli
ja za njime zudim
on se s' drugom voli

Ref. 2x
Kaznice ga zivot majko
k'o najveca kazna
kako su mi noci duge
zna, zna postelja prazna

Kakva je to ljubav
kad mi dusu slama
on nocima skita
a ja uvek sama

Ref. 2x

Kakva je to ljubav
kad mi razum uze
on sa drugom spava
a ja lijem suze

Ref. 2x
