Nevernica

Zeljko Sasic · Other Songs - Zeljko Sasic

Jedna zena bila mi je
vise nego druga
a sada smo razdvojni
ko sever i jug

Na srcu mi mnoge rane
od nje ostale
nek je vetar nosi dalje
od moje obale

Zeleo sam da je cuvam
da s njom delim dom
a sada se ne bih
ni druzio sa njom

Na vreme je pokazala
svoje pravo lice
hvala Bogu sto me spasi
od te nevernice

Cas na nebu cas na zemlji
ona bila je
trazim nesto nemoguce
a ne priznajem

Jos je sanjam
pa me noci teske
postale
nek je vetar nosi dalje
od moje obale

Jedna zena sad mi sprema
bol za sudbinu
a nekad sam bio spreman
da umrem za nju

Zlo bi bilo da je oci nisu odale
nek je vater nosi dalje
od moje obale
