The Lost City
Caamora Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Leo & Holly:
Can we be such welcome guests here?
Visitors from far away
Offered such a warm reception
Offered such a resting place

Ustane:
So long since we shared the human race
And now this sight of a different face
And changed me
It feels so right to me

Leo & Holly:
Celebrations in our honour
So much more than we could dream
How can we express our wonder
At the awesome sights we see?

Ustane:
So long since we shared the human race
And now this sight of a different face




And changed me
It feels so right to me
