Portland Town - Barleycorn

She said to me She wants to go to Portland There's not a thing That's nearly as important We could drive all night We'll get there in the morning What's one long drive Haven't you seen My bad habits As of lately maybe It's not a pleasantry Let's go soon And get there nice and early What's one long drive Haven't you seen My bad habits lately I've been naive And I've been feeling hazy, maybe I've barely left my room in a week The thought of doing so scares me I wish it could be easy To fall asleep completely She said to me As she sparks a pipe in the sunlight As she reclines She tells me I'll be alright

Can't find the words Can't explain But I'm so caught in the middle Memories were made to fade away I see these walls Can't climb them all Although I try, just a little I'm floating like a cannonball And the biggest quest Is here to walk I know by doubt you got bitten I'm always here to talk And the world is full with poems Yet there is so much unwritten I know it's hard to travel alone And let us talk, let us show There's a new world to discover We'll make 'em see We'll make them know That we are not like the others Aching like this Waiting like this Wandering like this (it takes time) Weeping like this Sleeping like this Hoping like this It's just how it is It's hard to see, harder to believe That things will probably get better You know I kept searching desperately And it all changed with the weather Let us talk, let us show There's a new world to discover We'll make them see We'll make them know That we are not like the others Aching like this Waiting like this Wandering like this (it takes time) Weeping like this Sleeping like this Hoping like this It's just how it is (It takes time) aching like this Waiting like this Wandering like this (It takes time) weeping like this Sleeping like this Hoping like this (It takes time) aching like this Waiting like this Wandering like this (It takes time) weeping like this Sleeping like this Hoping like this It's just how it is
