Cekala sam te

Cekala sam te ko ozeb'o sunce
ko sto zedna zemlja kisu ceka
nadala se da ces meni doci
tvoja ljubav posta jos vise daleka
Ref.
Zasto si od mene sve dalje i dalje
kad za moje srce ti si poput leka
zasto uvek zena kad beskrajno voli
ljubav svog zivota nikad ne doceka
Cekala sam te kao sto se ceka
samo jednom u zivotu neko
uzalud se nasa srca klela
sudbina je ipak nesto drugo htela
