Camelia Lyrics - Marty Robbins

From where I stand I can see all the lights in the city 

For one man to love one woman so much it's a pity 

From where I stand I can see the cantina she goes to 

Where she's not supposed to but goes anyway 

From where I stand I can hear the music and laughter 

Camelia keeps tellin' me that's all her young heart is after 

I see it differently, I see her there with a man 

Camelia keeps lyin', I see, from where I stand 

If there was one ounce of man left in me I'd accuse her 

What's left of a man knows for certain if I do I'll lose her 

It wouldn't do to let her know I know she's lyin' 

Or that I've been spyin', she'd never come back 

Camelia, I almost despise the ground that you walk on 

The reason I don't is, it's me not the ground, that you walk on 

Constantly tormented knowing you're just partly mine 

Camelia, I hate you and love you at the same time
