mark kozelek - i love portugal (acoustic version) كلمات الأغنية
in my hotel where the band is staying
i’m off desert, but what i’d give to not get on that plane
woke to the sound of birds calling and a woman watering her oleanders in the garden
and the maid scooting her tray around the echoey hall
i just want to stay in porto today, that’s all
when i’m here there’s a sense of calm
people living day to day and enjoying the moment
tonight we found a cozy place and we listened to portugese guitar and we ate steak
and bacalhau and caldo verde
then we went and got gelato and we drank iced lattes
and the fans have always shown me love (shown me love)
and so have my friends vasco, miguel, and nadia, and monica (nadia and monica)
i can’t complain, i get to visit every year
last night my driver said my music brought him to tears
[chorus]
i love portugal, i love portugal, oh, oh
i love portugal
i love portugal, i love portugal, oh, oh
i love portugal
i love portugal, i love portugal, oh, oh
i love portugal
i love portugal, i love portugal, oh, oh
i love portugal
was listening to mahavishnu’s “lila’s dance”
as i drifted off into a rare afternoon nap
yesterday, one shot in minnesota, one in baton rouge, and then a retaliation in dallas
someone shot and k!lled five cops
then the cops k!lled that sniper with a robot
but all was peaceful here at the seculo hotel in the bonfim neighborhood of porto
now i’m on my way to zürich, sitting at gate 35
tap operator by swiss airlines
i miss my quiet day in porto, sleeping and listening to the sound of the many birds singing
and the shoe store that i wanted to shop in
was closed and, man, it p_ssed me off
’cause we drove by twice on the way to soundcheck and on the way to the hotel from the show that night
i’m gonna return some day, i know it (some day)
and get me a home looking over the river in porto (river in oporto)
get me a plate of melon and prosciutto, some grilled sardines, a cup of coffee, and a bowl of gazpacho (bowl of gazpacho)
the usa can’t pull the guns from the trolls of the country i live in
can’t get a grip on gun control
if we’re gonna live with a president who’s a huge f_cking assh0l_
then, believe me, baby, i’m buying me a home in portugal
[chorus]
i love portugal, i love portugal, oh, oh / where the people don’t walk or run
i love portugal / they just stroll
i love portugal, i love portugal, oh, oh / where the people go to bars and relax
i love portugal / and listen to fado
i love portugal, i love portugal, oh, oh / where i feel at peace from my
i love portugal / head to my toe
i love portugal, i love portugal, oh, oh / but in particular, i love the city of porto
i love portugal
at the rothaus, room 301, in zürich
the bern show is cancelled tonight due to violence and a bunch of crazy other sh_t
it’s found its way into the venue
i’m not going to sing about it
i’m just gonna read the statement from the promoter to you
“dear mark, dear all at sun kil moon
i have really, really, really bad news. we’re deeply afraid but see ourselves in circumstances that unfortunately urge us to have to cancel the sun kil moon show at dachstock reitschule, bern. the open sp_ce in front of our house reitschule, bern is causing increasing troubles with violence and s_xism and organized drug dealing in the past years and months and weeks. as a sign, we decided to shut the place down and its ongoing activities. for a while, at least ten days, or maybe longer and find a way of how to deal with our society’s problems erupting in front of our house, creating a rather explosive atmosphere at times in front of our house. we’re very sorry that due to this reaction the show with sun kil moon will have to be canceled. as we’re in general enforcing this temporary shutdown, apologies for any inconveniences to you, i know your band just got into town. of course, we’re gonna pay full agreed guaranteed fee as well as covering your hotel for 12/7/16. all tickets will be reimbursed, or can be used to see your show tonight in zürich. we strongly hope you reschedule your concert in bern next time your band is touring in europe. reitschule remains closed until further notice. again, my deepest apologies, but it’s totally out of my control. let me know if you need any more info
sincerely, your promoter at breathing hope.”
[chorus]
i love portugal, i love portugal, oh, oh / and the sparkling douro river estuary
i love portugal
i love portugal, i love portugal, oh, oh / and when i’m i want some of my ashes spread there
i love portugal / and skip the hail mary
i love portugal, i love portugal, oh, oh / i’m gonna go back next year and find that same shoe store
i love portugal
i love portugal, i love portugal, oh, oh / i know it’s somewhere between the venue and the fnac bookstore
i love portugal
i love portugal, i love portugal, oh, oh / and it doesn’t have a godd_mned thing to do with football
i love portugal
[outro]
i love portugal, i love portugal, oh, oh
i love portugal
i love portugal
