Kim Wilde - Cambodia lyrics
[Kim Wilde - Cambodia lyrics]
Well, he was Thailand based
She was an air force wife
He used to fly weekends, it was the easy life
But then it turned around and
He began to change she didn't wonder then
She didn't think it's strange
But then he got a call
He had to leave that night
He couldn't say too much
But it would be alright
He didn't need to pack
They'd meet the next night
He had a job to do: Flying to Cambodia
And as the nights passed by
She tried to trace the past
The way he used to look
The way he used to laugh
I guess she'll never know
What got inside his soul
She couldn't make it out
Just couldn't take it all
He had the saddest eyes the
Girl had ever seen
He used to cry some nights as
Though he lived a dream
And as she held him close he
Used to search her face
As though she knew the truth
Lost inside Cambodia
But then a call came through
They said he'd soon be home
She had to pack a case and
They would make a rendezvous
But now a year has passed
And not a single word
And all the love she knew has
Disappeared out in the haze
Cambodia don't cry now
No tears now
And now the years have passed
With not a single word
But there is only one thing
Left I know for sure:
She won't see his face again
She was an air force wife
He used to fly weekends, it was the easy life
But then it turned around and
He began to change she didn't wonder then
She didn't think it's strange
But then he got a call
He had to leave that night
He couldn't say too much
But it would be alright
He didn't need to pack
They'd meet the next night
He had a job to do: Flying to Cambodia
And as the nights passed by
She tried to trace the past
The way he used to look
The way he used to laugh
I guess she'll never know
What got inside his soul
She couldn't make it out
Just couldn't take it all
He had the saddest eyes the
Girl had ever seen
He used to cry some nights as
Though he lived a dream
And as she held him close he
Used to search her face
As though she knew the truth
Lost inside Cambodia
But then a call came through
They said he'd soon be home
She had to pack a case and
They would make a rendezvous
But now a year has passed
And not a single word
And all the love she knew has
Disappeared out in the haze
Cambodia don't cry now
No tears now
And now the years have passed
With not a single word
But there is only one thing
Left I know for sure:
She won't see his face again
