Više sreće drugi put
Kažeš mi to tako lako
Vidim da nam ne ide
A još kako moglo je
I ako odeš ti nešto tvoje znaj tu će ostati
Nije ljubav stvar da bi ti je vratio
Gledaj to sam samo ja, uvek sam te voleo
Nije ljubav stvar pa da ne znam šta ću s njom
Želim ti sve najbolje, ova ljubav samo moj je brodolom
Nije tvoja ljubav stvar da bi ti je vratio
Gledaj to sam samo ja, uvek sam te voleo
Nije moja ljubav stvar pa da ne znam šta ću s njom
Želim ti sve najbolje, to moj je brodolom
Idi samo, samo idi tamo
Leti, pevaj, srce drugome daj
A znaj da zbogom nije kraj
Nije moja ljubav stvar pa da ne znam sta ću s njom
Želim ti sve najbolje, ova ljubav samo moj je brodolom
Better luck next time
Saying it to me so easily
I see we’re not doing fine
And we could’ve done it all much better
And if you leave there’ll be something of yours remaining here
Love is not a thing that I could give it back to you
Look it’s only me, I’ve always loved you
Love is not a thing to not know what to do with it
I wish you all the best, this love is my shipwreck only
Your love is not a thing that I could give it back to you
Look it’s only me, I’ve always loved you
My love is not a thing to not know what to do with it
I wish you all the best, it’s my shipwreck
Just go, just go there
Fly, sing, give your heart to someone else
But keep in mind that goodbye is not the end
My love is not a thing to not know what to do with it
I wish you all the best, this love is my shipwreck only
