Verenik sam bio tvoj
Jovica Simic · Other Songs - Jovica Simic
pred kapijom tuzna si stajala
cutala si i gledala nemo
uzalud si sebe proklinjala
Ref. 2x
Verenik sam bio tvoj
a ti moja verenica
sta ucini ti od mene
zeno sa dva lica
Jednog dana kad postanes majka
i kad budes ozenila sina
osetices da je zivot zao
jer sudbina slomi nasa krila
Ref. 2x
Sad obrisi suze sto ih lijes
jer istina svaka boli prava
nasa ljubav sto nesrecna bese
znaj da nikad nema zaborava
Ref. 2x
