Steve Laurie – The Lonely Camel lyrics

I’m losing memories from my oh so boring life
I never owned a dog and I couldn’t keep a wife
I burned my bridges now I’m all alone at last
Standing on an island sinking in the sand so fast

Lonely people of the world come my way
We’re the nation of united pain
Lonely people all around the world
No one sees us cause our flags all furled

I’m keeping records of the tired and the meek
We talk in riddles of self deprecating speak
Dancing at the party with no one cheek to cheek
Another hour, another day, another week

Lonely people of the world come my way
We’re the nation of united pain
Lonely people all around the world
No one sees us cause our flags all furled

Is it just me? Is it just me? It is just me? Is it just me?
I cannot fool you but the fool’s in me

Lonely people of the world come my way
We’re the nation of united pain
Lonely people all around the world
No one sees us cause our flags all furled

I travel on my camel going from town to town
Looking for a trace of all souls who are down
Picking pieces to puzzle an ordinary life
It’s so frustrating when you cannot get it right

Lonely people of the world come my way
We’re the nation of united pain
Lonely people all around the world
No one sees us cause our flags all furled
