(Latimer/Bardens/Ward)
She is my first love
Graceful in all her ways
Holding the hillside
Turning the sky from night into day
She won't care to take my breath away

So softly silent
She brings before the dawn
A time of twilight
While all the world waits to be reborn

Nobody knows her name
No one knows how she came to be here at all
Living and loving, hoping to everyone
Living and hoping to everyone     (x6)

Old as the hills
Young just like the rising sun
Over fields
That lie away beneath her feet
Every time we meet
She takes my breath away
next song previous song Camel: Echoes - The Retrospective Camel: Never Let Go Camel: Lanscapes Camel: Chameleon - The Best Of Camel Camel: Breathless Echoes
(Latimer/Bardens/Ward)
Out of the mist
Rising, ten thousand navajo braves
Shining like golden eagles in flight
Climbing high on the plain

Born of the Earth
Set free to ride away with the sun
So free to sing in tune with the world
Gladly, dance for the rain

So many moons have flown
Now all your ghosts dance along shadows
War cries that died on your lips
Echo above the plain

next song previous song Camel: Echoes - The Retrospective Camel: Lanscapes Camel: I Can See Your House From Here Your Love Is Stranger Than Mine
(Latimer/Schelhaas/Bass/Ward)
Can't you see ?
All of the things that I'm trying to say
Are inside of me
I never thought I'd be feeling this way
But I think you've known all the time
Your love is stranger than mine

Seeing you
I can't believe in a love that won't leave
I don't want you to
Be anyone that you don't wanna be
But I think you've known all the time
Your love is stranger than mine

Chorus :
  If you are the one
  To make it, to break it
  If you are the one
  Won't you stay with me ?

One more time
Getting a feeling afraid that I might be
Out of line
Telling myself there's a chance that you
Could be someone I've known all the time
Your love is stranger than mine

Chorus

Your love is stranger than mine...
next song previous song Camel: Coming Of Age Camel: On The Road 1982 Camel: Echoes - The Retrospective Camel: I Can See Your House From Here Hymn To Her
(Latimer/Schelhaas)
Look to the mirror
I can tell no lies
Time drawing nearer
Still I'm all alone
You are the giver
Me, I never try
Now we're together
Still I'm all alone

Please can you tell me
When you're by my side
And when my eyes see
Will I wonder why
If you are with me
I can only try
To find the answer
In the words that ask the question

Why don't we know
And why don't it show
I wanna find out
Try let it all out

Why don't we know
And why don't it show
I wanna find out
Why, why

In reply to your request, please find...
I hereby protest.
To the ways and means you use
You know... I cannot refuse.

So I'll take this vow of Loyalty.
Fight for the right,
You have said,
To be free.

When this time has run its course,
I must... live without remorse.
For the deeds I'm bound to do,
I know... it's all the same to you.

But I won't forget the memory...
Taking a life,
For a life...
To be free.

(Latimer/Hoover)
Tell me no lies, has peace arrived...
Or, is this some kind of joke ?

What a surprise, you don't realise...
There's some things you don't own.

Can you disguise, can you simplify...
This change you put me through ?

Can you revive, and will I survive...
This life you've brought me to ?

Can you disguise, can you simplify...
This change you put me through ?

Tell me no lies, has peace arrived...
Or, is this some kind of joke ?

next song previous song Camel: Camel (25th Anniversary Compilation) Camel: On The Road 1982 Camel: Echoes - The Retrospective Camel: The Single Factor You Are The One
(Latimer)
When I'm on my own and out of my mind
I realise how I've grown, and changed my old line

Learning how to give and not be afraid,
Of the place where I live and mistakes I have made

Chorus :
  You are the one changing my life.
  You are the one making it right.
  You are the one warming my nights -
  You are the one.
  You are the one giving me all.
  You are the one opening doors.
  You are the one hearing my call -
  You are the one.

Looking 'round I can see you are still here
Not in sight but in me your being appears.

Chorus     (x2)
next song previous song Camel: Echoes - The Retrospective Camel: Lanscapes Camel: Stationary Traveller Refugee
(Latimer/Hoover)
There's a rumor flying through the air
Paranoia's creeping everywhere.
You're gonna raise a wall - to draw the line.

Chorus :
  You say you've got your reasons
  I hear them all the time
  You say it's talking treason
  And a crime... to question why.

Don't you know I've seen this all before ?
History repeats itself once more.
I don't want to go - and I can't stay.

Chorus

I don't want to be a refugee,
I just want a single guarantee.
I don't want to be a refugee,
I just want the right to disagree.

I don't want to be a refugee,
I just want a single guarantee.
I just want the right to disagree.
I don't want to be a refugee...
next song previous song Camel: Echoes - The Retrospective Camel: Pressure Points - Live In Concert Camel: Stationary Traveller West Berlin
(Latimer/Hoover)
Feel a chill in the dark, twilight falls.
Feel the beat of your heart, danger calls.

Up to the rooftop, out in the rain... Oh yeah

Well I'm planning it out, day by day.
There's no room for doubt, just one way.

Chorus :
  Up to the rooftop, out in the rain... Oh yeah

  And I'm looking out over West Berlin.
  Feeling freer now than I've ever been.
  When the sun sets over West Berlin,
  I'll be leaving,
  I can't come back again.
  And I'm looking out over West Berlin,
  West Berlin.

In the flood of the light, safety will shine.
We'll be high out of sight, on steel cable line.

Up to the rooftop, out in the rain... Oh yeah
And I'm looking out over West Berlin.
Feeling freer now than I've ever been.
When the sun sets over West Berlin,
I'll be free again

Chorus
next song previous song Camel: Coming Of Age Camel: Echoes - The Retrospective Camel: Never Let Go Camel: Dust And Dreams Mother Road
(Latimer)
You've made your decision to leave
There's no turning 'round.
Now that you've got a reprieve,
You must stand your ground.
Some of the others are weak,
So you must be strong
$155 won't last very long...

Chorus :
  Ma, will we make out,
  Do you think that this old car will last ?
  Pa, is there some doubt,
  If our bad luck will stay in the past ?

Well I'm hoping it's so,
But you can't really know til the end.
They tell me that all things must change
But they begin again.
Listen to the motor and the road
And how does it feel ?
Listen with your ears and your hands
On the steering wheel.

Chorus

Listen now boys,
What your ma has told you
There is no way we can tell...
We've got to face this road together
And have some faith
In ourselves.

Chorus

Ma,
Will we make out... ?
