lyrics

CAMDEN

I didn’t want to fall in Camden Locks
though the prettiest road had an ugly turn

I was blindsided
I was blindsided
By wanting more than you could give
When I thought that you already did

If it weren’t for that passerby
Who saved me with her winsome smile

I’d be short-sighted
So short-sighted
While searching for your love
That you took from me and hid

Oh, why did you run
And not send for me when I lost my blood
Did it hurt you more
When I hurt too much?

As I lay here in recovery
With the memories soaking the sheets

You were exciting
You were excited
By loving me the way you did
What a miracle of life you give

I can’t imagine how to die
But the pain for me just won’t subside

I’d be so frightened
I’d be so frightened
Of losing myself
To the thought of losing you
