[Verse 1: Gordon Deppe]
These eyes
Cold from the winter years
Of searching
Every face
These arms
Numb from the cold embrace
Devoured
By something not totally there
[Chorus: Gordon Deppe]
You've been
Camera shy, in my life
You've been somewhere else always
Camera shy, you've led a careful life
Quietly keeping your distance
[Verse 2: Gordon Deppe]
Your hands
Signs on a one-way road
Directed
Straight at you
Your eyes
Colder than even mine
As if frightened
By something not totally there
[Chorus: Gordon Deppe & Sandy Horne]
You've been
Camera shy, in my life
You've been somewhere else always
Camera shy, you've led a careful life
Quietly keeping your distance (You've been!)
Camera shy all my life (Camera shy)
You've been somewhere else always
But now you're mine, no more careful life (No more careful life)
You're gonna stand still for me
This is the pose I've waited for
Smile!
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus: Gordon Deppe & Sandy Horne]
You've been
Camera shy, in my life (Camera shy)
You've been somewhere else always
Camera shy, you've led a careful life (Camera shy)
Quietly keeping your distance (You've been!)
Camera shy all my life (Camera shy)
You've been somewhere else always
But now you're mine, no more careful life (No more careful life)
You're gonna stand still for me
Smile
