Lyrics
Last night you were on my balcony
You needn’t try, know the whole story
Before it’s too late I must get away
But both of us know you must stay
Oh, come on, Camila
Surrender into the roses
Go back home under the posies
Surrender into the roses
Camila, Camila, Camila
Tying, dying, flowers around the room
It keeps me safe, but oh! the sickly perfume
Well, it makes me long for the good times
When you were really alive
Oh, come on, Camila
Surrender into the roses
Go back home under the posies
Surrender into the roses
Camila, Camila, Camila
