Portugal - Helvetia

Portugal Lyrics

I know everyone you know
you know everyone i know
our venn diagrams are one circleyou grow up when I'm not looking
we grow apart without knowing
and all of a sudden I'm leavingso I say I'm sorry I can't, I've got plans
'cause I watch the time slip through my hands
what you don't know now one day you'll learn
growing up is a heavy leaf to turn, a heavy leaf to turntake me with you
'cause even on your own, you are not alone
take me with you
'cause even by yourself, my love, you are somethin elseone summer turns into ten summers
one lover turns into ten others
but this memory is still with meso close bring me in so close
your clothes underneath my clothes
once upon a time in PORTUGALso I say I'm sorry I can't, I've got plans
'cause I watch the time slip thru my hands
what you don't know now one day you'll learn
growing up is a heavy leaf to turn, a heavy leaf to turntake me with you

'cause even on your own, you are not alone
take me with you
'cause even by yourself, my love, you are somethin elseno matter what you want
somebody else wants it just as bad
no matter what you got
somebody else has got it worse
no matter when I got to you
somebody else got to you firstso I say I'm sorry I can't, I've got plans
'cause I watch the time slip thru my hands
what you don't know now one day you'll learn
growing up is a heavy leaf to turn, a heavy leaf to turntake me with you
'cause even on your own, you are not alone
take me with you
'cause even by yourself, my love, you are somethin else
