Camellia Lyrics - Hall & Oates

Opening night, nothing new Atlanta 

Into the spotlight, one more time 

Just in time to play 

To one man and an empty table 

He was drinking down the pain 

All he could say was this lady's name 

And I heard him call 

Oh Camellia, won't you take me away 

Oh Camellia, won't you take me away 

After the show, when the room was empty 

No, he wouldn't go 

So I asked him why he called her name 

Seems she was some magic one night 

With something for his pain 

But all she left was a pretty name 

Oh Camellia, won't you take me away 

To paradise tropical moon 

Don't you leave me sitting here in Atlanta 

Oh Camellia, won't you take me away 

To paradise tropical moon 

Don't you leave me sitting here in Atlanta 

Say it, say it, say it again 

Oh Camellia, won't you take me away 

To paradise tropical moon 

Don't you leave me sitting here in Atlanta 

Oh Camellia, won't you take me away 

To paradise tropical moon 

Don't you leave me, don't leave me 

Don't you leave me, don't you leave me 

Don't you leave me 

Oh Camellia, won't you take me away 

To paradise, tropical moon
