Gde je nestala (feat. Showtime Band)
Jovan Perisic · Other Songs - Jovan Perisic
da li znas, pitao sam nju
u glas mi rekla cujem
Do juce bio srecan
evo me sada sam na dnu
zbog nje se vinom trujem
Ne vredi, druze stari
kad djavo srecu kvari
sve, bas sve ti ne ide
On posalje ti zenu
zenu da vara te
a ti na kraju shvatis
Ref.
Gde je ljubav bila
gde je nestala
kako to volela pa prestala
zasto sa drugim deli sve
sto tvoje je
Sve je snove srusila i nestala
zato nek' sada ide bestraga
sudbina prokleta
i ljubav oteta
Koliko jos kafana
pa da zaboravim na nju
na dan kad sve mi uze
a ti i dalje pamtis
U mom oku evo
godina kako stanuju
zbog nje te gorke suze
Ne vredi, stari druze
kad cujke glavom kruze
svi, tad svi se predaju
ti bi zaboravio, al' one ne daju
a ti i dalje pamtis
Ref. 2x
A question left by betrayal
Jovan Perišić and Showtime Band approach “Gde je nestala” (“Where Did It Disappear?”) as a lament for a love destroyed by betrayal. The narrator asks where the affection went, while memories of lies and broken plans keep the loss immediate. A band feature gives the performance a fuller ensemble sound, but the story remains centered on a man trying to understand how a once-close relationship unraveled.
The track circulates in Perišić's mid-2010s catalogue with Showtime Band credited as collaborators. Its documented lyric entry predates the 2016 *Snaga ljubavi* album, but the song does not appear on that record's published tracklist, and a firm standalone release date is difficult to verify. That uncertainty makes the feature credit and its heartbreak subject the most reliable context.
No dependable chart position or contemporary review is available. “Gde je nestala” belongs to the region's familiar folk-ballad tradition of betrayal and late-night grief, with the band's presence widening the arrangement beyond a solo vocal. Its central question has no easy answer: the narrator remembers the love clearly, but cannot reconcile that memory with the partner's departure.
