song list next song Camel: Letter B Camel: The Single Factor Camelogue
(Latimer/Hoover) 
Standing at the crosswalk -
Wonder which direction to go.
Listen to the smalltalk -
Claiming how they told me so.

I improvise,
Have to keep going for the song and the road.
A lonely rise,
Now I'm relying on a song of my own.
My own.

Early on detected -
Trouble had divided in two.
Acting unaffected -
Reflecting on the things I do.

A solo rise,
Have to keep going for the song and the road.
Temptation sighs,
Leave us a memory we've loved to know.

Fighting the lead -
I was so confused
Feeling so accused.

A solo rise -
Have to keep going for the song and the road.
Temptation sighs,
Leave us a memory we've loved and known.
What can I do ?

(Latimer/Hoover) 
Wake-up,
Wake-up, wake-up
Signs tell the time you're wasting.

Wake up
Wake-up, wake-up
Life you will find is changing.

O the city life, endless confusion.
Hanging on too tight, to this illusion...

I'm not what I appear to be.
I couldn't take the honesty,
It seemed to be... too easy for reality.

O the city life, what have I come to ?
Faces in the night, friendly to fool you.

I always try to justify,
The way I am and wonder why
I couldn't be... the same to you I am to me.

Wake up     (x5)

I'm not what I appear to be.
I couldn't take the honesty,
It seemed to be... too easy for reality.

O the city life (takes you up, takes you down)
O the city life - city life
song list next song previous song Camel: Camel (25th Anniversary Compilation) Camel: Lanscapes Camel: Stationary Traveller Cloak And Dagger Man
(Latimer/Hoover) 
Stepping outside, there's no turning back.
Looking behind, there's no turning back.
Nowhere to hide - watch out for the man in drag;
She's got you tagged!

Checking all around, there's no turning back.
Listen for a sound, there's no turning back.
Keep your head down - watch out for the go-between!

Chorus :
  The Cloak and Dagger Man
  Follows -
  Run undercover and
  Trust in no one you know.

Watch what you say, there's no turning back.
Lover's will betray ! Watch out for the promise of...

Chorus

song list Camel: Letter D previous song Camel: Camel Curiosity
(Bardens) 
Sail, sail away there you go
To a place you know
Why not let me come along,
I won't tell no one.

Now our bodies have entwined,
Touch me with your mind.
Your dreams are a mystery,
Please share them with me.

Curiosity is killing me,
I just got to know.
Curiosity is killing me,
I just got to know.
Where, tell me where,
Where are you sailing...

Sail, sail away there you go
To a place you know
Why not let me come along,
I won't tell no one.

Sail, sail away...
