To nisam ja

jer na mom srcu jos njen je znamen
sliku joj ljubim, samo to mogu
sad moj je zivot ispovid Bogu
Neka mi more ocisti dusu
neka me nose vitri sta pusu
samo sam sa njon ja covik bija
nisam to tija, nisam to tija
Ref.
To nisam ja, to nisam ja
da sam sa njon ostat tija
ne bi se od ljudi krija
ne bi nocu zaplaka
To nisam ja, to nisam ja
neka nocas svice gore
neka razdili se more
nasoj ljubavi je kraj
ljubavi je kraj
Ref. 2x
To nisam ja
