Lyrics

Memories, how they fade so fast

Look back, that is no escape

Tied down, now you see too late

Lovers, they will never wait

I am a camera

I am a camera

Take hearts, I could never let you go

And you always let the feeling show

Love us all, how you never broke your hearts

How you lose them

If you feel the feeling start

I am a camera, camera, camera

I am a camera, camera, camera

I am a camera, camera, camera

And you, may find time will blind you

This to just remind you

All is meant to be

Here by the waterside

Here, where the lens is wide

You and me

By the sea

Taken in tranquility

Taken, taken so easily

To pass into glass reality

Transform the transfer to energy

Take hearts, I could never let you go

And you always let the feeling show

Love us all, how you never broke your hearts

How you lose them

If you feel the feeling start

I am a camera, camera, camera

I am a camera, camera, camera

Taken, taken so easily

To pass into glass reality

Transform the transferring energy

And you may find time will blind you

This to just remind you

All is meant to be

(I am a camera, I am a camera)

I am, I am a camera

I am, I am a camera

(I am a camera, I am a camera)

I am, I am a camera

(I am a camera, I am a camera)

(I am a camera, I am a camera)

I am, I am a camera

I am, I am

Here by the waterside

There, where the lens is wide

You and me

By the sea

Taken in tranquility

I am, I am a camera

I am, I am a camera

I am, I am a camera
