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 canteen-a, 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
