In This Camp Lyrics - The Trials Of Van Occupanther - Midlake

In this camp there's one who delights me 

Brings me afternoon tea then she leaves me 

When they're climbing over the sea 

She helps to keep our strength complete 

But I'd rather stay 

'Cause the north is too far away 

I wanted to marry Babette 

And the weapons on my shoulders 

I'd throw into seaweed banks 

And the willows and the lime-trees 

Were gathered there for us 

Above the unconquered seas 

Unconquered seas 

There's the horn call 

Put your boots and courage on and run 

I wanted to marry Babette 

And the weapons on my shoulders 

I'd throw into seaweed banks 

And the willows and the lime-trees 

Were gathered there for us 

Above the unconquered seas 

Unconquered seas 

I'm counting up all the lovely years 

Since I had stepped inside 

With the others in this lonely field 

Who I fought beside 

They mustn't mind 

They must let me go to find 

A site for my retire 

Will this war 

Capture your heart or more 

And carry you down the shore 

'Cause the north is too far away 

I wanted to marry Babette 

And the weapons on my shoulders 

I'd throw into seaweed banks 

And the willows and the lime-trees 

Were gathered there for us 

Above the unconquered seas 

And the willows and the lime-trees 

Were gathered there for us 

Above the unconquered seas
