Those Were The Days (17)

17.

maybe I’m
too ambitious for you
maybe everything would be different
if you were a girl
you’re lazy and irresponsible
I should’ve left you
when you lied to me
that you passed the exam
we cannot live out of love
I’m not willing now
after all this
to start a new relationship
I will not leave you for now
but in a couple of months who knows
you are the first normal guy
I’ve been with
just, you have to be
a little bit mean to me
still, you are the best

To su bili dani (17)

To su bili dani (17)

17.

možda sam ja
preambiciozna za tebe
možda bi bilo sve drugačije
da si žensko
ti si lijen i neodgovoran
trebala sam te ostaviti
onda kad si mi lagao
da si položio ispit
ne možemo živjeti od ljubavi
ne da mi se sada
nakon svega
započinjati s nekim drugim
sad te neću ostaviti
ali za par mjeseci tko zna
ti si prvi normalni frajer
s kojim sam bila
ma moraš mi malo
biti zločest
ipak si ti najbolji
Close
