Nostalgija
Nihad Alibegovic · Other Songs - Nihad Alibegovic
stigne poslije sedam godina
isti je to, vjeruj, osjecaj
kada sam te sinoc sreo ja
Lijepa si
jos ljepsa nego prije
k'o da nisu prosle godine
Lijepa si
jos ljepsa nego prije
ne mogu ti nista godine
Ref.
Znam ja sta me dovelo
u nas stari kraj
al' sta tebe dovodi
hajde, ispricaj
Jos bolje da cutimo
k'o dva kamena
nekad mnogo vise
kaze minut sutnaja
Mozda nisi imala
srece k'o ni ja
pa nesretne opet
spaja ista nostalgija
Nikad nije kako je receno
nego kako nam je sudjeno
nesto nas je ovdje vratilo
nemoj reci da je slucajno
Ref.
