Lyrics[]
Vse, kar mi ostalo je
Par spominov, upanje
Njena slika pred očmi
Nikoli ne zbledi, le žari
Tisoč let jo čakal bom (Čakal te bom)
Na kolenih prosil bom (Prosil te bom)
Naj usmili se nekdo
Zakričal bom v nebo ljubim jo
Naj bogovi slišijo
Da mi je hudo
Rešite me
Ne, ne morem brez nje
Umira mi srce
Naj usmili se nekdo
Zakričal bom v nebo ljubim jo
Naj bogovi slišijo
Da mi je hudo
Rešite me
Ne, ne morem brez nje
Oh… (Naj bogovi slišijo)
Nana naj naj naj naj naj…
(Da mi je hudo) Da mi je hudo
Rešite me
Ne, ne morem brez nje
Umira mi srce
Umira mi srce
All there is left for me
Are a few memories and hope
Her picture in front of my eyes
Never fades, it just shines
I’ll wait for her for a thousand years (I’ll wait for you)
I’ll be begging on my knees (I’ll be begging you)
Let someone have mercy
I’ll scream to the sky I love her
Let the gods hear
That I’m in pain
Save me
No, I can’t be without her
My heart is dying
Let someone have mercy
I’ll scream to the sky I love her
Let the gods hear
That I’m in pain
Save me
No, I can’t be without her
Oh… (Let the gods hear)
Nana naj naj naj naj naj…
(That I’m in pain) That I’m in pain
Save me
No, I can’t be without her
My heart is dying
My heart is dying
Trivia[]
- The song almost didn't compete in Eurovision, because Slovenia's four-year average at that point was 0.25 points above the relegation zone. After the contest, their average was only 2.25 points above.
- Mojmir Sepe was initially set to conduct the entry; however, a conflict between him and the pianist resulted in the use of the backing tape instead.
