slucajno sam juce sreo
cekao kroz godine i volio
Prolazila duga ljeta
al' sam znao da ce doci
procvjetati poput cvijeta
jedne ludo tople noci
Jednu malu balerinu
koja u mom srcu plese
cekao sam kroz godine i volio
Prolazila duga ljeta
al sam znao da ce doci
jedne ludo tople noci
Samo ne znam da l' bi htjela
onu igru koju ne sm'je
il' je mozda zavoljela
tuzne rime moje pjesme
Samo ne znam da l' me hoce
da li ona mene zeli
u tom svijetu od samoce
gdje smo cudom
mi se sreli
