song list next song Camel: Letter G Camel: Coming Of Age Camel: Harbour Of Tears Harbour Of Tears
(Latimer/Hoover)
I am one of seven brothers.
Five of us must leave and start again.
In this land of Saints and Martyrs,
Tears of sadness hide within the rain.

So fare thee well, Remember me...
Sail from the Harbour of Tears

I can hear my father calling        Goodbye, lad... I'll miss you,
'Godspeed, my son,                  Though I don't show it.
Wherever you may go'                I am a farmer of the land,
He looked so small                  I'm not a man of words.
Down on the quayside.               Forgive me my failing,
A man I guess                       You never knew me.
I'll never really know.             Godspeed wherever you may go...

So fare thee well,
Remember me...
Sail from the Harbour of Tears

(Latimer/Hoover)
The light is fading
The cause invading
All the hopes that you were building
On tomorrow
Now you must go.

So stretch your wings,
As nature sings
Her farewell lullabye to soothe you
Through the changes
When you must go.

The gift is knowing
Your strength in going
When the time has gone beyond
Your heart's desire,
And you must go.

(Latimer/Hoover)
Image of mine are you just a myth ?
Aiming for the stars and a need to exist
Singing your life to its final bar,
Staging all the scenes to avoid who you are.

Idol of mine will you lead me on ?
Build for me the dreams that I'm longing to own.
make me secure - be my fallacy.
You are all my world if for only today.

And live for evermore...

Chorus :
  Heroes I call for you!
  Legend to feed my heart and soul.
  Heroes I cry for you!
  Legend will bleed your heart of soul.

Chorus     (x2)
song list next song previous song Camel: Camel (25th Anniversary Compilation) Camel: On The Road 1982 Camel: The Collection Camel: Rain Dances Highways Of The Sun
(Latimer/Bardens)
We are sailing in a ship that's got no sails
We are riding on a train right off the rails
We are in an old sedan that's lost a wheel
But it makes no difference to the way we feel

Chorus :
  It's been a long time - seems like a lifetime
  To be where we are
  Take a little tumble, fall and maybe stumble
  Now we've gone so far

All along the highways of the sun

No one knows how far it is we have to go
Because every step we take reveals some more
But we'll keep right on as far as the eye can see
Over there where landman scares appear to be

Chorus

Crusing down the highways of the sun

Chorus

All along the highways of the sun

(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
