Portugal Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well I once knew a man from the shores of Cape Cod
A man who called everyone babe
We met in the Mystic and might have made love
If, through the morning, I'd stayed
But I could not stay

[Pre-Chorus]
So we drank vino vine, went to the water
Took off all of our clothes

[Chorus]
He said I can see Portugal from here
I see Miss [Emalia] by the pier
By the light of constellations
And the voice of Rodriguez, we sail

[Verse 2]
Your father was born a fisherman's son
And your mother had red hair like mine
And I knew from the way that we mirrored each other
Our histories came as no surprise
Still I was not wise

[Pre-Chorus]
So we smoked marijuana at the top of old [churo]
Sang to the infinite sea

[Chorus]
He said I can see Portugal from here
I see my grandfather by the pier
By the light of a golden sunset
And the songs of ancestors, we sail
Oh, we sail

[Verse 3]
Ah, those were the days before the long cataclysm
An erosion not quite of the sea
Now your city falls like an ancient slow motion
As glaciers give way to the heat
And so do we

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, the last time I saw you
We were caught in a landslide
As our love turned to fossils and bone

[Chorus]
You said
Oh, I can see Portugal from here
I see my beloved by the pier
By the light of admiration
And the ghost of our memories, we sail
Oh, we sail
