Dear Reader - Camel Lyrics

He rubbed his hands together and it sounded like
Folding a love letter into an envelope
I couldn't look him in the eye, try as I might
He was wearing an overcoat made of camel coloured smoke

I vaguely remember our history where we were close
Trying to shake this feeling that he's someone else
Never before has hollow seemed so verbose
He was wearing an overcoat made of camel coloured smoke

Was it his or was it mine, I guess the fault lies with us both
No, I was hurt but to be true I always saw the end
Right from the beginning
Maybe that makes me guilty of everything, my friend
I hope you can forgive me

(He was wearing an overcoat camel coloured smoke)

You must live somewhere else now, I do not want to know
You must love someone else now, I do not want to know
You must be someone else now, I do not want to know
I hope you can forgive me?

We talked a while politely then we hugged goodnight
I felt desires upon me as I walked toward home
I turned and saw him standing in fluorescent light
He was wearing an overcoat made of camel coloured smoke

Was it yours or was it mine, I guess the fault lies with us both
