Vala vala

a krevet za dvoje
jos mi puno falis
sve je ovdje tvoje
Sad se gorko kajem
sto te vise nema
sve te vise volim
vise sam te zeljan
Ref.
E vala vala
Bio sam budala
Eh da nisam ti bi
Sa mnom ostala
E vala vala
bio sam budala
a ti kao obicno
zivis odlicno
Ja zivim od poroka
neka proklet dovjeka
Evo me opet
dozivam te glasno
u krvi mi ljubav
a za nas je kasno
Sad ja vise nemam
svoju mirnu luku
luda mi te glava
otela iz ruku
Ref. 2x
