Camooweal (1998 - Remaster) - Slim Dusty

Written by：Slim Dusty/A. Cormack

Should ever I go back to Camooweal

'Twould be in the spring when desert flowers bloom

Oh the spinifex I know would still be there

And the desert pea would brighten up the gloom

Should ever I go back to Camooweal

One thing is sure I'd not be twenty two

As in that day when I first wandered there

But mem'ries stay with me as mem'ries do

How fresh her mem'ry keeps for still I feel

The velvet softness of her auburn hair

And see again the moonbeams in her eyes

As I did so long ago when I was there

Youth called to youth in that now distant day

I did not heed my heart did not reveal

And now I know that love was born and lost

In that little border town of Camooweal

Oh the long road beckoned on my feet said go

To search beyond the hills for what I find

Although I've wandered far this sunburnt land

I've never found what I have left behind

Oh the burning fire of that other spring

Is now but ashes and the hurt won't heal

Time heals all wounds they say but leaves the scar

So I think I'll not go back to camooweal

Time heals all wounds they say but leaves the scar

So I think I'll not go back to camooweal

No I think I'll not go back to Camooweal
