[Verse 1]

Pokloni mi more
Pokloni mi metar neba ispod kog bi disali
Još nikada nisu
Grlile ove ruke nekog kao što si ti

[Pre-Chorus]

Kao da savršeno je sve to
S tobom je život zauvek leto
Ulaziš mi u dušu mislima
Ne daj me nikome više nikad
Svaki naš tren je baš kao slika
Neponovljiva, neizbrisiva

[Chorus]

Ovu ljubav umem
Kô da nam je život uloge napisao
Sve i da sutra umrem
Srce pored tebe se naživelo, nadisalo

[Verse 2]

Zaustavi vreme
Nek barem na kratko stane Zemlja dok me ljubiš ti
Još nikada nisam
Gorela tako jako s nekim kô mi daje mir

[Pre-Chorus]

Ne daj me nikome više nikad
Svaki naš tren je baš kao slika
Neponovljiva, neizbrisiva

[Chorus]

Ovu ljubav umem
Kô da nam je život uloge napisao
Sve i da sutra umrem
Srce pored tebe se naživelo, nadisalo

[Bridge]

Pokloni mi more
Pokloni mi metar neba ispod kog bi disali
Baš nikada nisu
Grlile ove ruke nekog kao što si ti

[Chorus]

Ovu ljubav umem
Kô da nam je život uloge napisao
Sve i da sutra umrem
Srce pored tebe se naživelo, nadisalo
Kô da nam je život uloge napisao
(Sve i da sutra umrem)
Srce pored tebe se naživelo, nadisalo
