next stop vienna to rome - sun kil moon lyrics

rainy day in portugal
remembering my times
here through the years
in lisbon watching pennywise
at a music festival
where antonio sergio
gave me a portuguese guitar
we talked about fado
i play it to this day
it’s all over
ghosts of the great highway
in famalicão
signing lyric books
in coimbra getting heckled
in alvaro driving around
with vasco
in porto playin’ a music fest
with blind zero
fnac bookstore
shoppin’ with nadia and monica
eatin’ grilled sardines
with caroline in sintra
watching lloyd cole
remember singin’ with him
in gothenburg, sweden
we sang
heartbroken
today
walkin’ around with bеn
taking photos of old trucks
mushrooms on tree stumps
sick as a dog, walkin in the rain
in porto ain’t a bad thing
i’ve been sick as a dog
in germany
sick as a dog
in london, england
if you’rе gonna be sick as a dog
anywhere at all
portugal ain’t the worst
place to be is all
caldo verde
soup on every corner
markets with fresh garlic
oranges and bottled water
and portuguese coffee
with milk tastes good
i’m no coffee aficionado
but yeah i like it pretty good
on our way from here to kaltern
to play a music fest
3:30 am wake up call
woke up at 3 got dressed
bones felt chilly
throat felt itchy
nostrils all clogged
sick as a dog
so i called it off
next stop vienna and rome
i called a doctor
he came by looked at me
and said ‘sir
you need to rest some days
here in portugal
then catch the next flight home
and where is home?
i said, ‘i don’t know
could be ohio
could be san francisco
could be orange county
really i don’t know.’
he said ‘sir, you’re very tired
i suggest three days rest
before crossing the ocean
to wherever is your home
i said, ‘for now, home is porto
i love portugal’
‘yes sir, but you need to get home’
i said, ‘for now, this is my home. oporto’
‘that will be 80 euro’
dug through my suitcase
dug through my computer bag
found exactly eighty euro
a fifty and two fives
twenty euro in change
‘nice to meet you sir
what is your name?’
he said something like ‘edwardo’
i said ‘you’re a very nice man
i appreciate your kindness’
‘you’re a very kind man to,’ he said
‘have a good rest sir’
then i talked with my sister
until 5 a.m
slept till 1 pm
now i’m sitting here with ben
on his 32nd birthday
in his hotel room
looking out on the overcast day
listening to the seagulls
listening to the rain
listening to him play
his midi keyboard
listening to him play
miguel’s telecaster
life ain’t so bad here
sick as a dog
microphone in front of me
singing whatever comes to me
i love portugal
loved singing it the other night
here in porto
opened with mother and daughter
got fanned by a fan
while singing dogs
and another fan while singing wolves
was sweatin’ so bad
i almost passed out
but we made it through the set
thanks to my loving fans
for cooling me off with their pink fans
and we closed the show
i love portugal, i love portugal
then ben and i talked into the night
with miquel and vasco and graca
who have all been so gracious
yeah i love portugal
truer words couldn’t be spoken
i love portugal
truer words couldn’t be spoken
now that i’m done singing this
gonna go to my room and rest
i’ll see ben later for dinner
at a cozinha do manel
tell him, ‘i’ll see you next time’
gave him a hug and say
‘have a safe flight
happy birthday’
