Eurovision Song Contest · Eurovision Song Contest 1994 [1994]
Pod niebem bia³o-czarnym
Ludzie s¹ wyciêci z szarych stron
Ze Å“rodka ksi¹g
Piêkni s¹ z romansu t³a
Zmêczeni tylko z gazet
A ja... jestem bia³¹, czyst¹ kartk¹
PoÅ“ród was
To nie ja by³am Ew¹
To nie ja skrad³am niebo
Chocia¿ dosyæ mam ³ez
Moich ³ez, tylu ³ez
Jestem po to, by kochaæ mnie
To nie ja by³am Ew¹
To nie ja skrad³am niebo
Nie dodawaj mi win
To nie ja, to nie ja
Nie ja, jestem Ew¹
Niebo wieje ch³odem
Piek³o k³ania siê ogniem do stóp
A ja... papierowa marionetka, muszê graæ
To nie ja by³am Ew¹
To nie ja skrad³am niebo
Chocia¿ dosyæ mam ³ez
Moich ³ez, tylu ³ez
Jestem po to by kochaæ
Wiem
Zanim w popiÓ³ siê zmieniê
Chcê byæ wielkim p³omieniem
Chcê siê wzbiæ ponad Å“wiat
Hen, ogrzaæ niebo marzeniem
(To nie ja by³am Ew¹)
(To nie ja skrad³am niebo)
No, no, no, no...
(To nie ja by³am Ew¹)
(To nie ja skrad³am niebo)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, no...
