Kol'ko kosta sreca

Veceras navratih ja na jedno pice
on je pored tebe, srecno mu se smesis
ja sam bio covek u starom odelu
koga nisi smela nocas da primetis

Ref.
Kol'ko kosta sreca, da li ima cenu
da i ja jednom srecan budem
sve sto smo sanjali ti si dala njemu
a bio sam spreman zbog tebe da umrem

Na stolu stoje vino i case
i njegova ruka na ramenu tvom
dok muzika svira boli me sve jace
setim se, moram kuci u prazan dom

Ref.

Oni se tebi smeskaju i dive
nazdravljaju glasno i case zvone
za tvoju srecu oni danas zive
coveka ne vide sto za sankom tone

Ref. 3x
