Bila si bolja

Bila si bolja od mene
i dala mi sve sto imas
andjele plavi, ti cuvar si moj
ja znam, ja znam, ti znas

Carape svuci svilene
tamni prebaci plast
ucini i to zbog mene
zbog nas, zbog nas, zbog nas

Nisam kriv jer nisam znao
citav sam te zivot krao
ti si dala svaku svoju draz
a ja samo laz

Ref. 2x
Zato jer si bila bolja
ko sam bio ja
ne znam ni sam
spasavas i ono malo
sto vrijedi izmedju nas

Ugasi svjetlo i lezi tu
privij se uz mene
hocu da osjetim ko prvi put
tvoj dah, tvoj strah, tvoj krik

Nisam kriv jer nisam znao
citav sam te zivot krao
ti si dala svaku svoju draz
a ja samo laz

Ref. 2x
