lyrics

You asked me what I was feeling
when I said that I
I’d never know I was satisfied
And rattled by your question line
I think I'll take the stairs tonight

My love’s around the corner
And your heart is about the town
They say I'm out of order
Because I'll never turn you down

This is the paint stripped from the walls
This is the smoke hanging in the air
Though we could be almost anywhere
This is Portland, it helps to like the rain

Without a breath this is what remains
These are our hearts filled by the vain
When I can't stand to live inside
And it's pouring, it helps to like the rain

Something's moving me
So why aren't we dancing?
It's just the thought of being there with you
At every evening apartment happening

Your love's around the corner
And my heart is about the town
They say I’m out of order
Because I’ll never turn you down

This is the paint stripped from the walls
This is the smoke hanging in the air
Though we could be almost anywhere
This is Portland, it helps to like the rain

Without a breath this is what remains
These are our hearts filled by the vain
When I can't stand to live inside
And it's pouring, it helps to like the rain

She always knew in the back of her mind
This can't be bought, this can't be bribed
I ran home from the assembly line
To be what you like
Aside myself this time

This is the paint stripped from the walls
This is the smoke hanging in the air
Though we could be almost anywhere
This in Portland, it helps to like the rain

Without a breath this is what remains
These are our hearts filled by the vain
When I can't stand to live inside
And it's pouring, it helps to like the rain
