I carry many ugly, and beautiful memories from that period of my life.

I spent most of my days playing, like any child."

Decko Za Provod
Maya Berović Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Izlazim po prvi put
posle lose veze s njim
I nije mi namjera
skoro da se zaljubim

Malo nocne magije
sada mi je dovoljno
a ti decko gledas me

osjecam se pozeljno

Do vraga nek ide sve
ovoj zeni ljubi se

Uhvati me dok je vatre
jedan minut uzbudjenja
pa zauvijek dovidjenja

Uhvati me i da necu
ja sam sama sebi povod
ti si decko moj za provod

Izlazim po prvi put
posle lose veze s njim
I nije mi namjera
skoro da se zaljubim

Malo nocne magije
sada mi je dovoljno
a ti decko gledas me
osjecam se pozeljno

Uhvati me dok je vatre
jedan minut uzbudjenja
pa zauvijek dovidjenja

Uhvati me i da necu
ja sam sama sebi povod
ti si decko moj za provod

Do vraga nek ide sve
ovoj zeni ljubi se

Uhvati me dok je vatre
jedan minut uzbudjenja
pa zauvijek dovidjenja

Uhvati me i da necu

ja sam sama sebi povod
ti si decko moj za provod
