Marty Robbins - Camelia lyrics
[Marty Robbins - Camelia lyrics]
From where I stand I can see
All the lights in the city
For one man to love one woman
So much it's a pity
From where I stand I can see
The canteena she goes to
Where she's not supposed to but goes anyway
From where I stand I can
Hear the music and laughter
Camelia keeps tellin' me that's all
Her young heart is after
I see it differently
I see her there with a man
Camelia keeps lyin', I see
From where I stand
If there was one ounce of man
Left in me I'd accuse her
What's left of a man knows for certain
If I do I'll lose her
It wouldn't do to let her
Know I know she's lyin'
Or that I've been spyin'
She'd never come back
Camelia, I almost despise the ground
That you walk on
The reason I don't is, it's
Me not the ground, that you walk on
Constantly tormented knowing you're
Just partly mine
Camelia, I hate you and love
You at the same time
All the lights in the city
For one man to love one woman
So much it's a pity
From where I stand I can see
The canteena she goes to
Where she's not supposed to but goes anyway
From where I stand I can
Hear the music and laughter
Camelia keeps tellin' me that's all
Her young heart is after
I see it differently
I see her there with a man
Camelia keeps lyin', I see
From where I stand
If there was one ounce of man
Left in me I'd accuse her
What's left of a man knows for certain
If I do I'll lose her
It wouldn't do to let her
Know I know she's lyin'
Or that I've been spyin'
She'd never come back
Camelia, I almost despise the ground
That you walk on
The reason I don't is, it's
Me not the ground, that you walk on
Constantly tormented knowing you're
Just partly mine
Camelia, I hate you and love
You at the same time
