Ovo u grudima

Ne gledaj mi oci
nisu one stare
lako mogu poci
lako da zaborave

Ne gledaj mi oci
saznaces mi zore
ne diraj mi usne
istinu ce da progovore

Ref.
Nalagala sam tebi
i lagala ljudima
al nisam mogla slagat
ovo u grudima

Lagala sam tebi
i lagala svima
al nisam mogla slagat
ovo u grudima, ne

Trideset i treca
ceka na vratima
pola je zivota
a ja nisam shvatila

Nije kome je receno
vec kome je sudjeno
znam, jedno je istina

Ref. 2x
