Neka doveka
Vesna Rivas · Other Songs - Vesna Rivas
pa da opet tiho umirem
na tvojim rukama u slatkim mukama
sto mi ne dodjes
Sto me nocas ne ljubis
pa da opet glavu izgubim
a vec me jutrima boli u grudima
sto me ne ljubis
Ref.
Neka doveka
i zauvek prokleta
moja dusa sto je samo
tebe cekala
Neka doveka
i zauvek prokleta
sto je srce tebe htelo
pa izgorelo
Sto me vise ne budis
pa da srecna oci otvorim
bas mi nedostaje, veruj mi, tesko je
sto me ne budis
Sto me vise ne volis
pa da opet srecna osetim
taj miris jasmina sa tvojih usana
sto me ne volis
Ref. 2x
