Ko te nocas ljubi
Mahir Burekovic · Other Songs - Mahir Burekovic
bese lepo k'o u prici
sad kad nisi vise moja
sve na ruznu proslost lici
Ref.
Ko te nocas ljubi hteo bih da znam
oci su mi otvorene, ne dolazi san
pred slikom se tvojom kao vernik molim
ti si bila i ostajes zena koju volim
Sve je proslo draga moja
topla leta, zime bele
nisi vise ljubav moja
godine nas mnoge dele
Ref.
Nista vise nije lepo
svoju tugu ja ne krijem
svake noci u kafani
sam za stolom vino pijem
Ref.
