Chameleon lyrics

The last I heard of you

You were somewhere on a cruise in Mediterranean

So imagine my surprise

To see you very much alive in the English rain again

And I can still recall wet afternoons

When we were small and simply childish

But you've created your own ghost

And the need you have is more than most to hide it

Oh, chameleon, you're stealing your way back into my eyes

Beyond a shadow of a doubt, you're a devil, you're a devil in disguise

Do you really change me or am I going crazy?

Chameleon, chameleon, chameleon, you're free again, my child

I remember still those lazy summer days

We'd kill out hunting danger

And we were alien to all outsiders

We had no desire to talk to strangers

And I can still recall wet afternoons

When we were small and simply childish

But you've created your own ghost

And the need you have is more than most to hide it

Oh, chameleon, you're stealing your way back into my eyes

Beyond a shadow of a doubt, you're a devil, you're a devil in disguise

Do you really change me or am I going crazy?

Chameleon, chameleon, chameleon, you're free again, my child

Chameleon...
