Portland Songtext
von Andrea von Kampen

This place looks nothing like where I come from
The trees they turn later, the sky comes undone
We drove all night through Couer d′Alene, and I woke with the sun
Onwards to Portland, Oregon (hmm)

I just want to leave to say that I did
Nothing against all the green fields of my childhood
But I'm drivin′ through all the same places that I used to
I'm gone to Portland, Oregon (hmm)


If am lost, I am lost on purpose
Please God don't find me
If I am running, I am running away all on my own
I get lost, I get lost, I get lost

Nobody cares if the foundation′s cracked
As long as it looks good when somebody asks
Yet I′ve got a man who loves me despite what I lack
We're goin′ to Portland, Oregon if anyone asks

If am lost, I am lost on purpose
Please God don't find me
If I am running, I am running away all on my own
I get lost, I get lost, I get lost
