300 Noci

Zeljko Sasic · Other Songs - Zeljko Sasic

Kada skupim snage
ja te trazit cu, opet
one oci drage
makar bio proklet

Kada dodje vreme
da se vidimo, opet
neka oci njene
zagrle moj pogled

I necu da pitam
ni gde je ni s kim je
ni pita li je dusa za mene

I necu da pijem
ni suze da lijem
i volet cu kao nekada
i volet cu samo jednu
od svih zena

Ref.
Onu, onu koju oci traze
traze, svake noci na dnu case
onu, kojoj nisam reko hvala
onu, koja me je uvek cekala
