Camilla we just met You don't even know me yet Camilla distant star I see you for who you are True child of the night Restless Seeker for the light Burning all alone Girl I'd love to take you home Camilla do you see Camilla this is me Camilla Camilla night is dark It's cold out there in Pelham Park Camilla where you are Buses barely run that far So tell me if they do Who would I be talking to Someone who knows how To party for the Here and Now Camilla tell me true Camilla is this you Camilla Lost in darkness drowned in light Laid out cold in black and white Truly now the way we feel Is a temporary kind of deal We all go crazy now and then And here the bastard comes again Camilla close your eyes Maybe we can visualize If we try hard can we see The view from where we'll someday be To look back on this night Blinding flash of solar light Signal some great plan We may never understand Burnout none the less You and me did our best To soar high to be free In these dark days of History Camilla
