Pravio sam greske
nema ga ko nije
svi su moji govorili
ostavi je, ostavi je

Ref. 2x
Svi su tebe znali
samo nisam ja
ludo sam ti verovao
a ti lagala

Cinio sam cuda
nema ga ko nije
drugovi su govorili
neverna je, ostavi je

Ref. 4x

Pravio sam greske

“Pravio sam greške” (“I Made Mistakes”) begins with the narrator’s admission that everyone warned him to leave, and he was the one person who did not understand why. The refrain turns that failure of judgment into heartbreak: he trusted someone who lied, even as friends could see the danger. The song does not make the singer entirely blameless; the title acknowledges that his own choices helped keep him in the relationship. His regret is not only that she deceived him, but that he ignored the people who tried to tell him what he could not yet accept.

That structure gives the song a familiar but useful emotional triangle: the beloved, the singer and the outside voices that saw the truth sooner. The narrator’s devotion made him vulnerable, but it also narrowed his ability to listen. The repeated statement that he made mistakes is both self-reproach and the first step toward clarity. He is not yet describing a recovery; he is learning to distinguish love from the story he wanted to believe.

Miki Pavlović’s direct folk-pop delivery suits a lyric that depends on plain confession rather than ornate metaphor. Independent coverage of this specific recording is limited, so there is no basis for a reception consensus. “Pravio sam greške” is strongest as a song about hindsight: the facts were visible, but emotional investment made them hard to see. The narrator’s belated admission cannot undo the hurt, but it lets him begin telling a more honest story about how he got there.
