In this song, Morrissey is pleading with an ex-lover to return to him in Camden, a borough of London. He makes wry observations about his surroundings, which accurately reflect the Camden area, whilst simultaneously expressing his grief now that he finds himself alone.
[Verse 1]
There is something I wanted to tell you
It's so funny you'll kill yourself laughing
But then I, I look around
And I remember that I am alone
Alone
For evermore
[Verse 2]
The tile yard all along the railings
Up a discoloured dark brown staircase
Here you'll find, despair and I
Calling to you with what's left of my heart
My heart
For evermore
[Verse 3]
Drinking tea with the taste of the Thames
Sullenly on a chair on the pavement
Here you'll find, my thoughts and I
And here is the very last plea from my heart
My heart
For evermore
[Verse 4]
Where taxi drivers never stop talking
Under slate grey Victorian sky
Here you will find, despair and I
And here I am every last inch of me is yours
Yours
For evermore
[Verse 5]
Your leg came to rest against mine
Then you lounged with knees up and apart
And me and my heart, we knew
We just knew
For evermore
[Verse 6]
Where taxi drivers never stop talking
Under slate grey Victorian sky
Here you'll find, my heart and I
And still we say come back
Come back to Camden
And I'll be good, I'll be good, I'll be good, I'll be good
